man-db: fix multilib install file conflict

2018-10-04T13:21:41+00:00

The first line of config file man_db.conf is the package name. It causes multilib install file conflict. So add a patch to remove the line. (From OE-Core rev: d138b1ec4aef88a3b0c4f1d698ed2a224c93b889) Signed-off-by: Kai Kang Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

man-db: rdepend on base-passwd to ensure installation order

2018-08-14T10:36:31+00:00

Make man-db rdepend on base-passwd to ensure that base-passwd is installed before man-db at rootfs time. This is to avoid the following warning at rootfs time. warning: user man does not exist - using root (From OE-Core rev: 95162276b169b84d61eaa73416cf0838a0a8a8bd) Signed-off-by: Chen Qi Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

Add volatile configuraiton file for man-db so that in sysvinit systems we don't get failure when running `mandb'.

man-db: remove '--disable-cache-owner' option

2018-08-07T11:13:02+00:00

The following error appeared at boot. systemd-tmpfiles[115]: [/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/man-db.conf:1] Unknown user '1w' By default cache owner is enabled and defaults to 'man'. Users could supply '--enable-cache-owner=[ARG]' to change the default cache owner. Using '--disable-cache-owner' leaves the ownership of system-wide cache files unconstrained, and users will allowed to modify them. We'd better keep the default behavior, just like other distros do. I can guess that we used '--disable-cache-owner' to bypass the following error at do_install. | chown: invalid user: ‘man:man’ The 'man' user is provided by base-passwd recipe, so add it to DEPENDS.

man-db: replace the outdated man implementation

2018-02-24T10:31:45+00:00

Until now oe-core has been using a well obsolete implementation of man. Man-db on the other hand is used by all modern Linux distros, is actively maintained, has a standard build system, and does not require 30 patches to build.
