Cascading template system for packages and configs #100
Description
Reported by @aterrel.
Right now one of the major pain point for me using hashdist is all the
repeat in the packages. For example there is a lot of repeats in the
two files:
https://github.com/hashdist/python-hpcmp2/blob/master/package.yml.darwin
https://github.com/hashdist/python-hpcmp2/blob/master/package.yml.linux
not to mention all the fooConfig/foo.<arch>
On a call with Chris today I made the point that we should be instead
make a cascading template system for these packages and configs. My
view is that we should do something more like:
package.yml.base
...
package.yml.<arch>
{% include package.yml %}
<other arch dependent recipes>
