Simplifies rollbacks: revert symlink to previous directory.
Also,
* make directory names more intuitive: use $(date) for the _new_
directory, instead of the old one;
* write update patches to the new directory, instead of the old one;
* tee update summary to the new directory, so that it survives the
transient shell the update was run from.
Also, ask the augurs why 'test' has both -h and -L for symbolic links,

and get no answer 🤷

De-emphasize distro version change.
|
|
With some gratuitous variable renaming (add some _dir suffixes) &
bashism banishment (port a [[ =~ ]] to plain case).
|
|

Be cautiously optimistic: hope that the update process will work; stop
"generate dummy config & install everything from scratch" shenanigans.
(Do create a backup folder tho, just in case)
Also, compute patches for perusal.

* fix out-of-tree build
* allow tweaking configure options
|
|
Mostly to stop feeling guilty about not first-trying the ln
invocation. Of course now I feel guilty about my half-assed prefix
parsing.
C'est la vie 🧘

Now I can 'kdialog --icon compilation-success' 😤✊

Write an essay about it.

As per etc/DEBUG.

Fewer globals ⇒ better feng shui.
|
|
Makes upgrades less risky: can be committed and rolled back with the
flip of a symlink.
|
|
No idea how I managed to commit it in such a non-working state.

I update somewhat infrequently, and more often than not some packages
will fail to compile for obscure reasons.
At this stage, I've done the "generate minimal .emacs with selected
packages, install from scratch" dance that I figure I might as well
automate it.
|
|
Matches my usage pattern better.

GConf is OBE; GSettings is the replacement, and the configure enables
it by default. What the heck Past Kévin 🤨

Using an array makes it easier to add/comment out stuff.
NB: Cannot compile --with-xwidgets on Tumbleweed right now, because
the version requirement is too strict IIUC. I remember messing around
with *FLAGS and compiling/running successfully, but that knowledge
vanished along with some Git stash.

The pgtk build will not honor X resources anymore; move with the
times.
On my Debian XFCE laptop with a 1366x768 screen, this setting seems to
yield acceptable results:
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface monospace-font-name \
'DejaVu Sans Mono 11'
