    This is a partial revert of aa03004ace2fabb135a6208ef8c2d2b312aa7b0b. The
    approach that was taken leads to disagreement and the change was pushed
    too early. DISTRO_PR is going to say and will be used inside the package
    creation. There will be more disucssion on the list about where to continue
    from here.

    Allow a distribution to globally bump the PR of every package
    this is useful when there was a change in the toolchain and
    every package is going to be different.

    find packages/ \( -name '*.bb' -or -name '*.inc' \) -exec sed -i s/"^PR="/"FILE_PR ="/ {} \;

attempts to set the ownership of the installed files (install
-o/-g):
| NOTE: make install DESTDIR=/home/lenehan/devel/oe/build/titan-glibc-25/tmp/work/arpwatch-2.1a15-r1/image
| /usr/bin/install -c -m 555 -o bin -g bin arpwatch /home/lenehan/devel/oe/build/titan-glibc-25/tmp/work/arpwatch-2.1a15-r1/image/usr/sbin
| /usr/bin/install: cannot change ownership of /home/lenehan/devel/oe/build/titan-glibc-25/tmp/work/arpwatch-2.1a15-r1/image/usr/sbin/arpwatch': Operation not permitted
| make: *** [install] Error 1
| FATAL: oe_runmake failed
This worked on my old build host running Fedora Core 4 because the -g
and -o options are ignored there when install is run by a normal
user. The above error is on a ubunutu 6.10 host which obviously
doesn't ignore those options.

- mark configuration so they don't get wiped on upgrade
- don't pass -p, for nopromisc, as an option since that isn't
  supported (must be a debian patch which is not included in OE)
- remove RUNAS which was used to specify a non-root user to run as
  since it isn't support (must be a debian patch which is not
  included in OE)
- Use volatiles to create required /var directory.
- Inherit update-rc.d so it is started and stopped during
  uninstall, upgrade and uninstall.

versions is carried on the distribution site.
