Remove a module

From time to time, we have to drop a specific module support due to the upstream repository maintenance and latest Linux compiler, and so on. Here we shortly show how to remove the existing module from the environment.

A module

pyDevSup was abandoned, and no usage case was found for the ALS-U project, and it is difficult to keep the modern Python environment compatibility, which is a typical and common issue on every Python application.

configure/RELEASE

Remove the following lines

## https://github.com/jeonghanlee/pyDevSup
## 2024-08-31
SRC_NAME_PYDEVSUP:=pyDevSup
SRC_TAG_PYDEVSUP:=796f7d7
SRC_VER_PYDEVSUP:=796f7d7

configure/CONFIG_MODS

The pyDevSup is from my own forked and updated repository, please remove the following line in CONFIG_MODS as well.

SRC_GITURL_PYDEVSUP:=$(strip $(SRC_URL_JEONGHANLEE))/$(strip $(SRC_NAME_PYDEVSUP))

configure/CONFIG_MODS_DEPS

Please remove the following line in CONFIG_MODS_DEPS

pyDevSup_DEPS:=null.base

configure/RULES_MODS_CONFIG

• Remove conf.pyDevSup from MODS_ZERO_CUSTOM_VARS

  MODS_ZERO_VARS is derived from that list plus the generated auto-module targets, so deleting a name from the derived line has no effect and the module stays installed.

• Remove conf.pyDevSup and conf.pyDevSup.show rules completely.

conf.pyDevSup:
	@echo "INSTALL_LOCATION:=$(INSTALL_LOCATION_PYDEVSUP)"        > $(TOP)/$(SRC_PATH_PYDEVSUP)/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local
	@echo "PYTHON:=python3"                                      >> $(TOP)/$(SRC_PATH_PYDEVSUP)/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local
	@$(PYTHON_CMD) $(TOP)/$(SRC_PATH_PYDEVSUP)/makehelper.py     >> $(TOP)/$(SRC_PATH_PYDEVSUP)/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local

conf.pyDevSup.show: conf.release.modules.show
	@echo "cat -b $(TOP)/$(SRC_PATH_PYDEVSUP)/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local"
	cat -b $(TOP)/$(SRC_PATH_PYDEVSUP)/configure/CONFIG_SITE.local
