makefile: fix prosody.version target POSIX is quite explicit regarding the precedence of AND-OR lists [0]: > The operators "&&" and "||" shall have equal precedence and shall be > evaluated with left associativity. For example, both of the following > commands write solely `bar` to standard output: > false && echo foo || echo bar > true || echo foo && echo bar Given that, `prosody.version` target behaves as ((((((test -f prosody.release && cp ...) || test -f ...) && sed ...) || test -f ...) && hexdump ...) || echo unknown > $@) In the case of release tarballs, `prosody.release` does exist, so the first AND pair is executed. Given that it's successful, then the first `test -f` in the OR pair is ignored, and instead the `sed` in the AND pair is executed. `sed` success, as `.hg_archival.txt` exists, making the second `test -f` in the OR pair ignored, and `hexdump` in the AND pair is executed. Now, given that `.hg` doesn't exist, it fails, so the last `echo` is run, overwriting `prosody.version` with `unknown`. This can be worked around placing `()` around the AND pairs. Decided to use conditionals instead, as I think they better communicate the intention of the block. [0]: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_09_03

This file documents the structure of the roster object.

table roster {
  [string bare_jid] = roster_item
}

table roster_item {
  string subscription = "none" | "to" | "from" | "both"
  string name = Opaque string set by client. (optional)
  set groups = a set of opaque strings set by the client
  boolean ask = nil | "subscribe" - a value of true indicates subscription is pending
}

The roster is available as
 hosts[host].sessions[username].roster
and a copy is made to session.roster for all sessions.

All modifications to a roster should be done through the rostermanager.
