+# Convert _bootstrap packages to non-bootstrap version.
+# THIS IS A HACK. The _bootstrap packages are cross-compiled on a pseudo-haiku
+# environment running on a different host system. Expect binary
+# incompatibilities when trying to use them. However, the development files
+# should still be valid, allowing us to build a non-bootstrap Haiku against
+# these package before we can get the bootstrap image to run reliably enough
+# to actually bootstrap the packages.
