Summary

Add missing kcenon-common-system dependency to vcpkg.json and standardize the manifest format for vcpkg registry distribution.

5W1H Specification

• Who: container_system maintainers
• What: Add common_system dependency, fix vcpkg.json structure
• Where: vcpkg.json
• When: Q1 2025, Tier 2 priority (after common_system#252)
• Why:
  • common_system is a required dependency (per README)
  • vcpkg build will fail without declared dependency
  • Enable ecosystem-wide vcpkg distribution
• How:
  1. Add kcenon-common-system to dependencies
  2. Update vcpkg.json to standard format

Current Issues

Missing Dependency

README.md states:

Required Dependencies:

• common_system: Provides IConvertible and Result interfaces

Current vcpkg.json:

Tasks

• Add kcenon-common-system to dependencies
• Update vcpkg.json to standard format
• Move testing dependencies to features
• Verify vcpkg manifest mode build succeeds

Acceptance Criteria

• vcpkg.json includes common_system dependency
• vcpkg.json follows ecosystem standard template
• vcpkg install --manifest-mode succeeds
