[Soc-coordination] Gustavo Alkmim - Report 14 - Automate Bootstrap Tool

[Gustavo Alkmim]

As described in the last report, the objective of this past week was to
document all the implementation I did during the Google summer of code.

I created two scripts: run-native.sh and run-cross.sh. They are examples of
the execution of some of the scripts I made. By running ./run-cross.sh the
script should be able to setup an crossbuild environment and run the
automated bootstrap scripts. The steps performed by the scripts are:

1) Install required dependencies
2) Prepare the repositories locally (except the snapshot repository)
3) Create the chroot environment that will be used to crossbuild
4) Start the building process

Now that I understood all the concepts (at least the main ideas) and
understood how the process of bootstrap, multiarch and crossbuild works, my
intention is to maintain the scripts even after the GSoC, work on the
patches and make other scripts if I have another idea of automation.

All the codes and the patches are in the git repository in [1].

It was a pleasure to participate on this GSoC. I learned a lot and the
feeling of having accomplished this is very nice :).

Cheers,

Gustavo Alkmim
