You everyday commands:

# build it all
make DESTDIR=tmp install

# have a look at the result
tree tmp

Every directory is more or less like a lightweight package. It comes with its own Makefile and its own .gitignore file.

Everything that doesn't really belong to a particular feature, or is too small to deserve its own sub-directory, ends up in the directory misc.

This package was created by merging two git repositories:

• steamos-packages
• steamos-partitions

All the git history was lost in the process. So if you're after some details, you might want to refert to the git logs of those git repos.
