cmake/README.SUSE
Martin Pluskal 0340d959b8 Accepting request 777424 from home:dimstar:Factory
- Change cmake to be a meta-package that requires
  cmake-implementation. This new symbol is provided by the (newly
  named) cmake-full package as well as cmake-mini.
- This is needed as the original attempt of using Substitute in OBS
  actually rewrites the used spec files on disk, not only on the
  fly and we ended up with packages Requiring cmake-mini (which is
  not installable on end user systems).

The package 'cmake' only ships a README.SUSE file and serves
as a meta-package.
cmake requires cmake-implementation, which inside OBS is provided by
* cmake-mini (minimal cmake variant, no especially no libcurl/libarchive)
* cmake-full (what used to be called cmake before)
This complex setup was done in order to be able to eliminate build cycles, as
more and more tools were moving to cmake as build system, but with curl in the
build chain, was making it increasingly difficult to break the cycle.
cmake-mini is not meant for installation on end-user systems (where it also would
not save a lot; as an end user, you have libcurl on your system anyway due to libzypp)
and is thus not part of the FTP Tree.
