freeform
finds and executes files for freeform, manual install/clean
operations.
The freeform
step executes all matching executable files under a root
directory, in alphabetical order to perform freeform operations. The root
directory should have two sub-directories, called install
and clean
and
executable files will be searched for directly under these during installation
or cleaning. By default, executables are run with administrative privileges as
this is meant for installation/removal of system components.
Path to root directory. This directory should have two sub-directories called
install
and clean
under which executables will be searched for. Executable
lookup is not recursive, they have to be found directly under the relevant
directory at installation or clean time.
Filter to match against the name of the executables to lookup. All executable
files found in the relevant directory will be executed, in alphabetical order.
By default, this is *.sh
.
The value of this option should be a boolean (yes
/no
, true
/false
,
on
/off
, an integer). When it is true, the default, the executables should be
run as an administrator.

option.

option.
This environment variable is the same as the --sudo
option.
