Subject: build: add default priority to ABI-versioned packages
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=470e030a5eae77e94192e0dd933d7b1b657f7b2c;p=thirdparty%2Fopenwrt.git

build: add default priority to ABI-versioned packages

If a package has an ABI version defined, set priority to 10. The enables
packages with an ABI version to be installed by their base name instead
of a name and an ABI version, e.g.:

libfoo3, where 3 is the ABI version can be installed by just libfoo.

This affects manual installation only, as the dependency resolution
takes care of ABI versions.

Refactor apk priority logic into a helper define.
