Create a recipe for gpart [PROBABLY A HARD TASK]
Haiku is a UNIX-like open source operating system that provides a tool called haikuporter to build 3rd party open source software.
A recipe in Haiku is a text file that the haikuporter tool reads in order to build open source software and create packages for it. The collection of recipes that may be built by haikuporter is called HaikuPorts.
If you are new to Haiku then you should probably start with these tasks:
The goal of this task is to write a recipe for gpart.
Gpart is a small command line tool which tries to guess what partitions are on a PC type, MBR-partitioned hard disk in case the primary partition table was damaged.
Be extra careful when using this as it could wipe your data. You've been warned.
You can find the sources on the project homepage: https://github.com/baruch/gpart
The recipe should be added to haikuports at haikuports/sys-block/gpart/.
Important: please read the generic instructions for "recipe" tasks, as we have a lot of these: https://dev.haiku-os.org/wiki/GoogleCodeInTaskRecipe
