EncapPackages: Sadly not going to be able to do testing and doc update

This bootstrap code is a method for getting bcfg2 (as a client),

quickly as possible (from source).

-tools-build
------------
-Tools used during the build process; should be built before anything else.
- * m4 - The macro processor, used by mkencap, which is used by everything.
- * makeself - A utility to create self-extracting archives, used by the
- top-level Makefile to create the bcfg2-*.run distributions.
- * patch - Used to patch daemontools and ostiary sources before they build.

-bcfg2-client
-------------
-bcfg2 gettext libgcc libiconv libstdc++ libxml2 libxslt lxml openssl pkg-config pyopenssl pyrex python zlib
-
-bcfg2-cheetah
--------------
-The cheetah python-powered templating system. Used as a build tool by bcfg2-site, and by bcfg2-server. Build order:
-
-bcfg2-python-apt
-----------------
-Needed for bcfg2 clients that use the "Advanced Packaging Tool" (apt), such as Debian and Ubuntu.
-
-bcfg2-server
-------------
-Gamin (and glib, upon which it depends), which are needed by the bcfg2 server. Only for GNU/Linux.
-
-bcfg2-site
-----------
-Tools to make an encap package with your site-specific bcfg2.conf,
-custom bcfg2 generators, bcfg2 client run frequency, etc.
-
-tools-deploy/daemontools
-------------------------
-D. J. Bernstein's daemontools - a collection of tools for managing UNIX services the same way across all UNIX platforms. Used by bcfg2-site to run ostiary and bcfg2-client; may also be used to run bcfg2-server.
-
-tools-deploy/ostiary
---------------------
-Ray Ingles' ostiary - simple, secure remote script execution. Used by bcfg2-site to enable the remote kickoff of bcfg2-client runs.
-
-bcfg2-python-apt
-----------------
-Before building this, make sure that you have these libraries installed:
- * /usr/lib/libapt-pkg* (Part of the "apt" package on Debian)
- * /usr/lib/libapt-inst* (Part of the "apt-utils" package on Debian)
-
-You also must have the "libapt-pkg-dev" package installed.
-
-To see if your Debian variant is supported, do "grep ifeq Makefile" and see if
-any of those strings match "cat /etc/issue".
-
-It should be pretty trivial to add new Debian platforms; if you have any
-issues, mail the bcfg2-dev list or open a ticket.
