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

nativesdk-intercept: Fix bad intercept chgrp/chown logic

2023-09-08T21:59:47+00:00

Running either of these ends up corrupting the os.execv args. If we run: ./scripts/nativesdk-intercept/chown -R foo:foo bar The loop here ends up missing the conversion of foo:foo to root:root because it sees sys.argv[0] and assumes that it's the user:group argument and that we should convert that. We end up a os.execv(path, args) that have the following args: ['root:root', '-R', 'foo:foo', 'bar'] As os.execv ignores args[0], we can just populate it with sys.argv[0] and then loop through sys.argv[1:]. As both chgrp and chown would have either flags and USER[:GROUP] next, this fixes the issue.

nativesdk: Handle chown/chgrp calls in nativesdk do_install tasks

2021-11-26T17:01:08+00:00

We disable the useradd code for nativesdk targets since we don't support postinstalls or multiple users in those cases. This means any usage of chown/chgrp inside do_install tasks won't work and would have to be conditional. Rather than require all recipes to do that, add intercepts of the calls and map those to root/root user/groups. We can't just ignore them as some calls are used to remove host contamination from the host user ID so they need to be made, just as root.
