linux/poky.git/meta/lib/oe/package_manager/deb, 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The poky repository master branch is no longer being updated.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_manager/deb: give out useful reason about an unmatched package

2025-09-15T16:57:24+00:00

Give out useful information when a package could not be matched. Before the change: E: Package 'catch2' has no installation candidate With this patch: E: Package 'catch2' has no installation candidate catch2 is a recipe. Its generated packages are: ['catch2-src', 'catch2-dbg', 'catch2-staticdev', 'catch2-dev', 'catch2-doc'] Either specify a generated package or set ALLOW_EMPTY:${PN} = "1" in catch2 recipe (From OE-Core rev: ca6c1dd0148c4776bd556fccfd71153fc72d2e3d) Signed-off-by: Chen Qi Signed-off-by: Mathieu Dubois-Briand Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package_manager: Share more common DEB / IPK code

2024-05-28T08:38:23+00:00

Avoid code duplication by making `extract` a shared method (and retrieving the package manager specific input via an abstract method). Additionally, follow Python conventions and prefix class internal methods with "_" to indicate that they shouldn't be called externally.

package_manager: Move OpkgDpkgPM into common module

2024-05-28T08:38:23+00:00

The OpkgDpkgPM class was introduced to share common functionality between the Opkg and Debian package manager implementations. However, for unknown reasons , the refactoring done in 5bc67f55028407de78ac09f97f9a47b165ae8760 duplicated the common class into the deb and ipk modules. Undo this part of the change by moving the common base class into a newly created module. The two variants did not diverge a lot (next to the payload name generalization, the Debian variant missed 17e2eaed036e1da8e7cb42cb3de51b9523ba54ec) and as such no regressions should be expected.

lib/oe/package_managegment: Add nativesdk-intercept PATH

2023-09-17T18:37:19+00:00

[YOCTO #15023] This patch adds (and removes after function execution) the nativesdk-intercept/chown|chgrp PATH before target_pm.run_intercepts calls during populate_sdk builds. This has been tested with cleanall builds and testsdk and fails on deb due to an issue where $D${localstatedir}/cache/man/ does not exist for some reason. I've a work around for that in the next patch in this series. (From OE-Core rev: e7afdfe9da150209ab2676d09eae040de2155c6d) Signed-off-by: Eilís 'pidge' Ní Fhlannagáin Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

meta: remove True option to getVar and getVarFlag calls (again)

2023-02-02T09:50:02+00:00

* True is default since 2016 and most layers were already updated not to pass this parameter where not necessary, e.g. oe-core was updated couple times, first in: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=7c552996597faaee2fbee185b250c0ee30ea3b5f Updated with the same regexp as later oe-core update: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=9f551d588693328e4d99d33be94f26684eafcaba with small modification to replace not only d.getVar, but also data.getVar as in e.g.: e.data.getVar('ERR_REPORT_USERNAME', True) and for getVarFlag: sed -e 's|$d\.getVarFlag \?$( \?$[^,()]*, \?[^,()]*$, \?True)|\1(\2)|g' \ -i $(git grep -E 'getVarFlag ?$ ?([^,()]*), ?([^,()]*), ?True$' \ | cut -d':' -f1 \ | sort -u) (From OE-Core rev: 26c74fd10614582e177437608908eb43688ab510) Signed-off-by: Martin Jansa Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

lib: Add copyright statements to files without one

Where there isn't a copyright statement, add one to make it explicit. Also add license identifiers as MIT if there isn't one. (From OE-Core rev: bb731d1f3d2a1d50ec0aed864dbca54cf795b040) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

package_manager: Change complementary package handling to not include soft dependencies

2022-06-28T22:49:37+00:00

We've some long standing bugs where the RDEPENDS from -dev packages causes problems, e.g. dropbear and openssh components on an image working fine together but then the SDK failing to build as the main openssh and dropbear packages conflict with each other (pulled in by openssh-dev and dropbear-dev). We propose changing the behavour of complementary package installation to ignore RRECOMMENDS. If we then change the ${PN}-dev dependency on ${PN} to a RRECOMMENDS, we can avoid many of the issues people run into yet still have the desired behaviour of ${PN}-dev pulling in ${PN}. This therefore changes the package manager code so that it doesn't follow RRECOMMENDS for completementary package globs.

package_manager: sign DEB package feeds

2022-04-05T21:25:13+00:00

Implement debian package repository signature. For each Release file created in repository subdirectory, a signature Release.gpg is created. Signature is performed using gpg backend when the following variables are set in local.conf: PACKAGE_CLASSES += "sign_package_feed" PACKAGE_FEED_GPG_NAME = "" PACKAGE_FEED_GPG_PASSPHRASE_FILE="" (From OE-Core rev: fcc3cee276999efe6402959eb295e7a0e1e96f96) Signed-off-by: Xavier Berger Signed-off-by: Ferry Toth Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

Convert to new override syntax
