package_manager/oe-pkgdata-util: fix complementary package installation
We currently have a problem regarding complementary package installation, that is, if 'oe-pkgdata-util glob' maps out packages that are not in the oe-rootfs-repo, we will get error like below: No match for argument: lib32-glibc-locale-en-gb Error: Unable to find a match: lib32-glibc-locale-en-gb Here are the steps to reproduce the issue: 1. Add the following lines to local.conf: require conf/multilib.conf MULTILIBS ?= "multilib:lib32" DEFAULTTUNE:virtclass-multilib-lib32 ?= "core2-32" IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " lib32-sysstat" 2. bitbake lib32-glibc-locale && bitbake core-image-full-cmdline This problem appears because: 1) At do_rootfs time, we first contruct a repo with a filtering mechanism to ensure we don't pull in unneeded packages.[1] 2) oe-pkgdata-util uses the pkgdata without filtering. In order to avoid any hardcoding that might grow in the future[2], we need to give 'oe-pkgdata-util glob' some filtering ability. So this patch does the following things: 1) Add a new option, '-a/--allpkgs', to 'oe-pkgdata-util glob'. This gives it a filtering mechanism. As it's an option, people who use 'oe-pkgdata-util glob' command could use it as before. 2) Add to package_manager 'list_all' function implementations which list all available functions in our filtered repo.
