linux/poky.git/meta/classes-global/package_ipk.bbclass, branch master

The poky repository master branch is no longer being updated.

2025-11-07T13:31:53+00:00

You can either: a) switch to individual clones of bitbake, openembedded-core, meta-yocto and yocto-docs b) use the new bitbake-setup You can find information about either approach in our documentation: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ Note that "poky" the distro setting is still available in meta-yocto as before and we continue to use and maintain that. Long live Poky! Some further information on the background of this change can be found in: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2179 Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package_ipk: Use preferred form of --force-postinstall

2025-02-11T11:44:19+00:00

opkg accepts both - and _ in its options but use the help text preferred format. From https://github.com/yoctoproject/poky/pull/14 from Philipp-Alexander Blum . (From OE-Core rev: 4bea64347407dfb1eb46dacffd05af3bd200b419) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

ipk: Switch to using zstd compression

2023-12-23T08:46:00+00:00

Converts IPK package generation to use zstd instead of xz. zstd has a much larger compression/speed tradeoff range allowing users to choose what suits them best, and fast decompression speeds. It also continues to support parallel compression as xz did. A new variable called ZSTD_DEFAULTS is provided to set the defaults for places that want to use zstd for compression; the zst image conversion command is also modified to use this. Finally, in order for this to function properly, opkg must include zstd support, so it is enabled all the time with no PACKAGECONFIG to turn it off.

package_ipk: Fix Source: field variable dependency

2023-11-23T12:12:00+00:00

The Source: variable is generated from FILE but this is excluded from checksums normally which results in a reproduciubility issue when the filename changes. Add in a dependency by reworking the code a little to avoid this. (From OE-Core rev: 3ea7da76c6930031a0071069027b1d71f737fbc9) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package/package_write: Improve packagedata code location

2023-11-08T10:56:35+00:00

Move the do_packagedata dependencies into the package_write codeblocks themselves. Also drop the dependency for the tar package backend which was dropped. (From OE-Core rev: 372a7f2e3c5c03da044e576e1501e86f8938f5e6) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package: Move mapping_rename_hook to packagedata function library

2023-01-05T11:52:50+00:00

This function is used by the packaging tasks/classes and makes much more sense in the packagedata function library. (From OE-Core rev: 7a512a8803101310772d83836e6b78ebaf8121de) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package: Move pkgdata handling functions to oe.packagedata

2023-01-05T11:52:50+00:00

To avoid reparsing the bbclass code all the time, move the functions to the packagedata python function library code which is more efficient. (From OE-Core rev: f520a3039540b1183b1b2bdaaf8b9195995c0187) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package: Move get_conffiles/files_from_filevars functions to lib

2023-01-05T11:52:50+00:00

To avoid reparsing the bbclass code all the time, move the functions to the python function library code which is more efficient. (From OE-Core rev: 424e65627c018b3119050f515b0c7cfb43be5573) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

classes: Update classes to match new bitbake class scope functionality

2022-08-12T14:27:17+00:00

Move classes to classes-global or classes-recipe as appropriate to take advantage of new bitbake functionality to check class scope/usage. (From OE-Core rev: f5c128008365e141082c129417eb72d2751e8045) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
