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.

gmp_4.2.1: fix build for MIPS

2016-02-07T17:30:00+00:00

The h asm constrain (to extract the high part of a multiplication result) has not been recognised since gcc 4.4: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.4/changes.html Drop the MIPS umul_ppmm() implementations which rely on "=h" and fall back to the older implementations (which use explicit mfhi and mflo instructions to move the high and low parts of the multiplication result into their destinations).

gmp: move SRC_URI out of gmp.inc + minor reformatting

2016-02-07T17:30:00+00:00

The base SRC_URI in gmp.inc was wrong for gmp 4.2.1 and was not being used by gmp 6.1.0. Remove it and make each recipe responsible for defining its own SRC_URI.

gmp: Use __gnu_inline__ attribute in 4.2.1

2015-09-24T16:54:24+00:00

gcc 5 defaults to C11 rules about "extern inline": this breaks any code that includes gmp.h header from gmp 4.2.1 with 'multiple definition' errors. disable-stdc patch is no longer required because of this.

gmp: Bring back version 4.2.1 (LGPL 2.1+)

2015-09-01T10:43:59+00:00

gmp 4.2.1 was removed in f181c6ce8b apparently accidentally: It was not noticed that 4.2.1 is LGPL 2.1 (and not GPL) so provides a useful alternative to the newer "GPLv2 | LGPLv3" version. * Reintroduce 4.2.1. The source includes files that are GPL but the library package is LGPL 2.1+ * Also reintroduce the two patches removed in f181c6ce8b. * Refactor gmp.inc: gmp 6.0.0 build should not be affected in any way. * Update 6.0.0 license from "GPLv2 | LGPLv3" to "GPLv2+ | LGPLv3+".

gmp: uprev it to 6.0.0

2014-08-15T17:21:51+00:00

Uprev gmp from 5.1.1 to 6.0.0, and remove the 4.2.1 version which is GPLv2, since gmp-6.0.0 is dual-licensing, LGPLv3 or GPLv2; (From OE-Core rev: f181c6ce8b364fbf761a456d998ab78fbd751f35) Signed-off-by: Roy Li Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

gmp: use PACKAGECONFIG to address readline dependency

2014-07-17T11:36:19+00:00

To avoid automatically detecting readline dependency, which will lead to a implicit build result. (From OE-Core rev: b98da859423a541e419bbf38edacf2320ce00c8d) Signed-off-by: Ming Liu 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.

gmp: set SUMMARY and DESCRIPTION

2014-01-02T12:50:23+00:00

Use the same values for both versions (the GPLv2 version doesn't use the .inc file). (From OE-Core rev: 99c3f40299ddf97fd85eaea4d86176f2b4d4db92) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

gmp: fix license segment md5sum boundary

2012-12-03T14:32:44+00:00

Replaced incorrect "startline" with correct "beginline" for telling where license segment in file begins. Old md5sum was calculated from the beginning of the file, not from beginning of the license segment.
