This allows you to specify alternative builds in one manifest file. You specify the alternative on the commandline like: flatpak-builder --alt=NAME ... And this then builds the manifest like normally, but with a different cache base-name (so that both alternatives can be cached at the same time). However, using the new "alt" option in BuildOption and [only|skip]-alts options in modules and sources you can affect what gets built and how. This is very similar to how things can already be per-arch optional.

Hmm, maybe we should make this a multi-argument thing instead. Like --enable=feature1 --enable=feature2, and then enable-if: ["feature1"]. |

--enable/disable feature sounds more future-proof to me |
