recipes: Move out stale GPLv2 versions to a seperate layer

2017-03-07T20:05:31+00:00

These are recipes where the upstream has moved to GPLv3 and these old versions are the last ones under the GPLv2 license. There are several reasons for making this move. There is a different quality of service with these recipes in that they don't get security fixes and upstream no longer care about them, in fact they're actively hostile against people using old versions. The recipes tend to need a different kind of maintenance to work with changes in the wider ecosystem and there needs to be isolation between changes made in the v3 versions and those in the v2 versions. There are probably better ways to handle a "non-GPLv3" system but right now having these in OE-Core makes them look like a first class citizen when I believe they have potential for a variety of undesireable issues. Moving them into a separate layer makes their different needs clearer, it also makes it clear how many of these there are. Some are probably not needed (e.g. mc), I also wonder whether some are useful (e.g. gmp) since most things that use them are GPLv3 only already. Someone could now more clearly see how to streamline the list of recipes here. I'm proposing we mmove to this separate layer for 2.3 with its future maintinership and testing to be determined in 2.4 and beyond.

grep: set CONFIG_SHELL to /bin/sh

It would be bash, sh, ksh or sh5 according to the host if we don't set this, and its scripts don't have bashism as the checkbashisms shows. (From OE-Core rev: 6fe82a9ed6c7967aaf25c861400de4a9379e92c6) Signed-off-by: Robert Yang Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

Add texinfo.bbclass; recipes that use texinfo utils at build-time inherit it.

2014-05-02T19:46:59+00:00

The class itself currently does nothing. The idea is to mark all recipes that make use of the texinfo utilities. In the future, this class could be used to suppress the generation/formatting of documentation for performance, explicitly track dependencies on these utilities, and eliminate Yocto's current dependency on the host system's texinfo utilities.

grep: Always use locale.h

2013-03-20T17:26:16+00:00

The changes in the grep 2.5 configuration always leave out HAVE_LOCALE_H - it has been removed from other files, but not from everywhere. This leads to a crash in certain configurations where the size of int is not the size of pointer; this happens because setlocale() is used while being undeclared.
