    autotools: add a "bootstrap" attribute to skip default dependencies · d7820ee9
    Christoph Reiter authored
    Packages like autoconf/automake in the bootstrap moduleset use
    the autotools module type which defines default dependencies
    and leads to dependency cycles during bootstrap.
    
    This adds a bootstrap attribute which removes the default dependencies
    and allows the packages to control all dependencies.
    
    Initially the plan was to re-use the skip-autogen attribute and skip
    the default dependencies if "true", but skip-autogen also prevents
    configure from running which is still needed for those packages.
