While Autobuild3 is quite a quirky tool (cough), there are many source codes that shares common issues and needed certain tweaks/hacks to ensure its build result.
A good example is an issue shared among many GNOME project sources, an issue in
the libtool script that results in unnecessary dependencies to shared objects.
Autobuild3 supports using shared scripts to fix commonly found issues. They are
stored in "$AB"/quirks. To use such scripts, append lines like below to the
autobuild/defines file.
PKGQUIRKS=gnome
To use the commonly stored fix for the GNOME issue described above.
