These are leftover cache artifacts from earlier build experiments.
The new content-hash-based cache system stores dep_hashes.toml in
per-recipe target/ dirs and repo/ binary store, not in local/cache/.
- Add x11proto to redbear-full.toml package list
- libxau recipe updated with x11proto dependency and custom build script
- Fixes libxau build failure: 'Package xproto was not found'
- Removed broken netinet/in6_pktinfo_compat.h include from git tracking
- Restored pkgar signing keys from local/cache/keys/
- Restored 100 pkgars from packages/ backup with matching keys
- Mini ISO builds successfully (1.5 GB)
- Full ISO needs COOKBOOK_OFFLINE=false for missing tarballs
Platform prerequisite status:
- Qt6::Sensors: BUILT (v6.11.0, 520KB pkgar, dummy backend)
- libinput: BUILT (v1.30.2, with libevdev v1.13.2 + linux-input-headers)
- QML/Quick JIT: still disabled on Redox (blocks real KWin binary,
kirigami, plasma-framework)
KWin: now attempts real cmake build with Sensors + libinput deps
enabled. Falls back to redbear-compositor shim on cmake failure
(QML/Quick gate). Previously kwin was pure stub — now it's a
bounded build attempt with fallback.
Enabled in config (new this session):
- qt6-sensors, libevdev, libinput, kdecoration, kf6-kcmutils
Previously OOTB dependencies now resolved:
- libevdev → libinput → KWin real build path opened
- linux-input-headers → libevdev → libinput chain
- qt6-sensors → KWin Sensors dependency satisfied
pkgar signatures depend on build/id_ed25519 keys.
Without keys, cached pkgar files are unverifiable after key rotation.
Keys now stored in local/cache/keys/ for cache restore.
Red Bear is a fork/overlay on top of Redox. The upstream build
system wasn't designed for forks — it loses all cached stages on
make clean with no recovery path.
This commit adds a git-tracked build cache:
- local/cache/pkgar/{pkg}/stage.pkgar — per-package cache files
- cache-sync.sh: sync built packages → git-tracked cache
- cache-sync.sh --restore: restore cache → recipe targets
- cache-sync.sh --commit: sync + git commit
- Auto-restore before build, auto-sync after build
Cache survives: make clean, make distclean, git clone, upstream rebase.
Recovery from clean: seconds (restore from git) vs hours (full rebuild).
Adds comprehensive build cache snapshot and restore for overlay OS.
Problem: Upstream Redox build system is single-stream — make clean
destroys cached stage.pkgar files permanently. Build can't recover
without full from-scratch rebuild (2-4 hours).
Solution: Red Bear cache system provides:
- snapshot-cache.sh: Save all stage.pkgar to local/cache/
- restore-cache.sh: Restore from snapshot after make clean
- Auto-restore: Makefile auto-restores cache before build
- Essential cache: Pre-built caches for boot packages tracked in git
- Cookbook fixes: Missing deps trigger rebuild instead of crash
With cache restore, make clean recovery is measured in seconds,
not hours.
Gaps fixed in cookbook:
- modified_all_btree: missing dep → UNIX_EPOCH (rebuild trigger)
- sysroot install: missing dep → skip + rebuild
