Item9880: running configure from the command line

[00:29] <wbniv> SvenDowideit: did you have in mind a list of parameters that configure from the command line should take?
[00:30] <wbniv> some way to express PREF=value, of course
[00:50] <SvenDowideit> wbniv, y, that, and whatever pseudo-install can do

pseudo-install.pl capabilities (with irrelevant details removed)

wbniv@wbniv-laptop:~/foswiki/trunk/core/bin$ ../pseudo-install.pl --help
 Usage: pseudo-install.pl -[feA][l|c|u] [all|default|developer|<module>...]
    -f[orce] - force an action to complete even if there are warnings
    -e[nable] - automatically enable installed plugins in LocalSite.cfg
                (default)
    -m[anual] - no not automatically enable installed plugins in LocalSite.cfg
    -l[ink] - create links (default behaviour on this platform)
    -c[opy] - copy instead of linking 
    -u[ninstall] - self explanatory (doesn't remove dirs)
    core - install core (create and link derived objects)
    all - install core + all extensions (big job)
    default - install core + extensions listed in lib/MANIFEST
    developer - core + default + key developer environment
    <module>... one or more extensions to install
    -[A]utoconf - make a simplistic LocalSite.cfg, using just the defaults in lib/Foswiki.spec

• list extensions (goes and grabs the lists)

This is being addressed by the new ConfigurePlugin, so I feel comfortable in closing this report.
