linux/poky.git/meta/recipes-core/ncurses, 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The poky repository master branch is no longer being updated.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

meta: remove consecutive blank lines

2025-06-20T11:07:27+00:00

Some of them were introduced by mass-removal of S = WORKDIR/git assignments; rather than try to fix up (or redo) just these, I've run this sed command over the whole tree: sed -i -z -E 's/([ \t\f\v\r]*\n){3,}/\n\n/g' `find . -name *.bb -o -name *.inc` The rationale is that more than one empty line is wasting vertical screen space, and does nothing for readability.

meta: remove S in recipes that fetch from git via setting BB_GIT_DEFAULT_DESTSUFFIX

2025-06-20T11:07:26+00:00

Removing all the S = ${WORKDIR}/git assignments works because BB_GIT_DEFAULT_DESTSUFFIX is set to match S from bitbake.conf (which itself is set to match typical tarball releases). A few recipes are setting S to a sub-directory of the git tree and need to be adjusted accordingly. bzip2 recipe is fetching a tarball and separately cloning tests; adjust the recipe to put the latter into 'bzip2-tests', instead of 'git'. devupstream.bbclass no longer needs to rewrite S, and is adjusted accordingly. Adjust scripts/lib/recipetool/append.py to not hardcode 'git' as unpack destination. Adjust kernel-yocto.bbclass to use the git unpack variable instead of hardcoding 'git' (there's also removal of repetition of string constants and a correction of workdir/unpackdir mismatch in one of the if-else branches). Ensure build-appliance-image recipe does not use 'git' as checkout directory for poky repo, but rather explicitly name it 'poky'. Ensure reproducible.py code that looks for git repositories does not hardcode 'git' but uses the destination set by BB_GIT_DEFAULT_DESTSUFFIX. Ensure recipetool does not write out unneeded S settings into newly created recipes that fetch from git. Adjust selftest to not hardcode 'git' as unpack directory.

ncurses: Pin to C17 standard

2025-03-19T09:48:14+00:00

Newer snapshots of ncurses have the fixes but they are many needed to get C23 going. Until next release lets stick with C17 even while GCC 15 switches to C23 defaults. (From OE-Core rev: f3081700d931fc8f7d5cb13494e11100cb28b19f) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

ncurses: Fix install conflict when enable multilib.

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

The setting of want_xterm_kbs is as following: case $host_os in (*linux-gnu|*cygwin|*mingw32|*msys) want_xterm_kbs=DEL ;; (*) want_xterm_kbs=BS ;; esac The host_os when enable multilib is as folloing: host_os of aarch64 : linux-gnu host_os of aarch32 : linux-gnueabi So in lib64 package, want_xterm_kbs=DEL, and in lib32 package, want_xterm_kbs=BS. It results the differences in the terminfo files between lib32 and lib64 packages. Using --with-xterm-kbs=del to unify the packages of lib32 and lib64 into "want_xterm_kbs=DEL".

ncurses: Add alacritty terminfo

2024-12-03T11:21:34+00:00

This installs alacritty terminal info alongside other terminal emulator information. ``` $ ls /usr/share/terminfo/a alacritty ansi ansi80x25 ansis aterm ``` Alacritty is a relatively popular new terminal emulator. Without this, users need to use workarounds like `export TERM=xterm` to get terminal escape sequences to work (most of alacritty matches xterm/etc). Some true-color features do not work correctly with `TERM=xterm` though.

siteconfig: Drop siteconfig class/code/support

2024-05-31T15:58:36+00:00

The siteconfig code was only used for 5 cache values. The complexity added to sstate to support this code was considerable and the runtime much more significant than any benefit the cache files would have added. Drop the support for this which was only used minimally for ncurses and zlib. (From OE-Core rev: f3766dc038f7ba9780ddaf5eb8d27385ea31d7d0) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

github.com/mirror/ncurses is not updated for over a year. Switch to new mirror from Thomas Dickey (ncurses maintainer). Sources are identical.
