+help: |
+ This extension configures GENIVI systems. It uses the following
+ configuration variables:
+
+ * `GENIVI_WESTON_CONFIG` (optional, defaults to `baseline`)
+ the weston configuration file to use. The GENIVI baseline system
+ uses a different one than the GENIVI Demo Platform.
+
+ Possibles values here are `baseline` and `gdp`. Other values will
+ fail. The extension will copy the relevant configuration file
+ from `/usr/share/doc/weston/` to `/etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini`
+ to make it the default configuration for Weston.
+
+ * `GENIVI_WESTON_BACKEND` (optional, defaults to 'drm-backend.so')
+ the backend to use with Weston. This backend will be used in
+ the `weston.service` systemd unit overriding the default backend
+ specified when building Weston.
+
+ The extension looks for the backend in the system, failing if
+ it's not present. It will also try to append `-backend.so` to
+ the variable so that (e.g) you can set this variable to `fbdev`
+ and to `fbdev-backend.so`.
+
+ * `GENIVI_WESTON_AUTOSTART`(optional. defaults to 'False')
+ boolean. If `True` it will enable the `weston.service`.
