Allow to build external packages from source
Looking into the setup the compilation of the felix packages uses external packages
checked into git as binaries. Despite the NOLCG
this prevents builds not using LCG easily
as using devtoolset-11
for example fails while linking because of different ABIs.
The whole setup seems not maintainable and labor intensive with
- duplication of source packages into YARR
- building binaries and committing to gitlab
- adding a layer of version management by having version directories checked into git It would be good to allow to separate source and binaries and allow a complete build from source.
