**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Aug 29 02:59:58 2012
Aug 29 10:16:38 <pb_> morning all
Aug 29 10:24:11 <silvio_> morning all
Aug 29 10:40:36 <bluelightning> hi pb_, silvio_, all
Aug 29 12:06:07 <JaMa> pb_: morning, can you share git hooks which sync OE repos with github mirror?
Aug 29 12:56:04 <tasslehoff> is there a recipe where I can control the flags used by fsck on boot?
Aug 29 13:06:17 <bluelightning> tasslehoff: meta/recipes-core/initscripts/initscripts-1.0/check*.sh
Aug 29 13:06:30 <bluelightning> assuming you are using OE-Core with sysvinit
Aug 29 13:10:27 <tasslehoff> bluelightning: OE-core, but not sysvinit (though I ponder if I should).
Aug 29 13:11:07 <bluelightning> ah right, with systemd, no idea
Aug 29 13:13:04 <tasslehoff> bluelightning: are you using angstrom?
Aug 29 13:20:47 <bluelightning> tasslehoff: not on a regular basis no
Aug 29 13:25:10 <tasslehoff> bluelightning: ok. I use angstrom and suspect using systemd is best there. just wanted to know if you used angstrom+sysvinit in OE-Core :)
Aug 29 13:26:23 <bluelightning> I'd be interested to hear of folks doing that as well as a lot of people seem to be having issues with that combination; it's not clear to me whether it's supported or not over there
Aug 29 14:06:26 <guyzmo> ola
Aug 29 14:06:36 <silvio_> hello
Aug 29 14:07:04 <guyzmo> I'm building a package using the distutils stuff which declares a do_compile and do_install
Aug 29 14:07:15 <guyzmo> but I also have a few config files to deploy in /etc/
Aug 29 14:07:56 <silvio_> I still have trouble with WARNIG during do_install
Aug 29 14:08:06 <silvio_> something is not clear to me
Aug 29 14:09:28 <guyzmo> silvio_ - but the FILES_${PN} += "/my/file" did not work for you ?
Aug 29 14:09:32 <guyzmo> it did the job for me
Aug 29 14:09:36 <guyzmo> and I had the same warning
Aug 29 14:10:33 <guyzmo> btw, 18:42 <   guyzmo> for the note, FILES_${PN} += "/usr/lib/mysoft" seems to work for /usr/lib/mysoft/*/*
Aug 29 14:10:37 <guyzmo> it actually does not work
Aug 29 14:10:44 <guyzmo> each file has to be specified individually
Aug 29 14:12:01 <silvio_> mmh sound strange
Aug 29 14:12:24 <silvio_> u mean individual directory or file?
Aug 29 14:12:32 <guyzmo> *file*
Aug 29 14:12:40 <guyzmo> no wildcards
Aug 29 14:13:00 <silvio_> so like this?
Aug 29 14:13:01 <silvio_>    for i in * ; do
Aug 29 14:13:01 <silvio_>       cp -pPR ${i} ${D}/${bindir}/${i}${QT_LIBINFIX}
Aug 29 14:13:01 <silvio_>    done
Aug 29 14:13:09 <guyzmo> ?!?
Aug 29 14:13:21 <guyzmo> I don't get it
Aug 29 14:13:43 <guyzmo> symptom : you have a warning telling you that you deploy files that will not be in the package
Aug 29 14:14:10 <guyzmo> solution : for each file you get warned about, you add a line in your .bb file, matching the file
Aug 29 14:14:14 <guyzmo> i.e. for your case
Aug 29 14:14:25 <silvio_> i get i from qwt.inc
Aug 29 14:14:33 <guyzmo> $FILES_${PN} += "/usr/local/qwt-6.0.1/doc/html/inherit_graph_24.png"
Aug 29 14:14:35 <silvio_> i get it from qwt.inc recipe
Aug 29 14:14:52 <guyzmo> $FILES_${PN} += "/usr/local/qwt-6.0.1/doc/html/class_qwt_plot_histogram__inherit__graph.png"
Aug 29 14:15:02 <guyzmo> $FILES_${PN} = "/usr/local/qwt-6.0.1/doc/html/sliders.png"
Aug 29 14:15:05 <kergoth> s/^\$//;
Aug 29 14:15:06 <guyzmo> and that's all
Aug 29 14:15:18 <guyzmo> kergoth - yeah, right
Aug 29 14:15:25 <silvio_> but I had all file in /doc and /htlm and others
Aug 29 14:15:34 <guyzmo> silvio_ - well, do it for all of them
Aug 29 14:15:41 <silvio_> is a pain in the ....finger
Aug 29 14:16:07 <guyzmo> maybe you can write a function that declares all those files magically, but I don't know the internals of bitbake, so I can't tell you the formula of that magic
Aug 29 14:16:16 <guyzmo> the time being, yes, it's a pain
Aug 29 14:16:24 <silvio_> I belive u but in originale recipes it is doing in other way, but I still to understad hw
Aug 29 14:16:28 <silvio_> I belive u but in originale recipes it is doing in other way, but I still to understad how
Aug 29 14:16:47 <guyzmo> but at least, if you use a modern editor (like vim ;) ) you can do it in no time using a regexp
Aug 29 14:16:56 <kergoth> if the .inc is defining FILES_${PN}, you'd obviously have to do the += after the require of qwt.inc, otherwise it would overwrite you
Aug 29 14:17:05 <kergoth> but i'd highly recommend using bitbake -e to make sure it's set to what you think it is
Aug 29 14:17:11 <kergoth> bitbake -e somerecipe | grep \^FILES_
Aug 29 14:17:33 <bluelightning> also, aren't documentation files supposed to go in the ${PN}-doc package ?
Aug 29 14:17:37 <kergoth> many, many problems are due to things not being what ou think they are
Aug 29 14:17:48 <kergoth> yeah, if the recipe is installing files into /usr/local at all, you should figure out why and fix that
Aug 29 14:17:52 <kergoth> rather than packaging it
Aug 29 14:17:52 <silvio_> ok thanks kergoth,
Aug 29 14:18:09 <silvio_> guyzmo: thanks I try understand what I made wrong
Aug 29 14:18:50 <guyzmo> I got a question: I'm using "inherits distutils" which defines do_install and do_compile. But I need to deploy /etc/ files too. In what function shall I copy the files ?
Aug 29 14:19:12 <kergoth> do_install_append, most likely
Aug 29 14:19:16 <kergoth> add to do_install
Aug 29 14:19:36 <guyzmo> ok
Aug 29 14:20:16 <guyzmo> and btw, I also tried to do FILES_${PN}-plugins to put some plugins files in another package than the main code, but it did not create the -plugins package
Aug 29 14:20:36 <kergoth> it wont
Aug 29 14:20:47 <kergoth> the PACKAGES variable controls what packages get emitted
Aug 29 14:20:52 <guyzmo> ok
Aug 29 14:20:52 <kergoth> the FILES variables control what files go into those packages
Aug 29 14:20:56 <guyzmo> oook
Aug 29 14:20:59 <kergoth> so yu'd have to add ${PN}-plugins to PACKAGES
Aug 29 14:24:32 <silvio_> I start to see the light...
Aug 29 14:26:15 <guyzmo> one last question: is there a way I can tell a recipe to add a user to the system ?
Aug 29 14:26:36 <kergoth> see the useradd class
Aug 29 14:27:17 <bluelightning> guyzmo: for examples: git grep "inherit.*useradd" and then have a look at some of the recipes that it finds
Aug 29 14:29:35 <guyzmo> meta-skeleton/recipes-skeleton/useradd/useradd-example.bb
Aug 29 14:29:38 <guyzmo> thank you a lot :)
Aug 29 14:30:36 <guyzmo> uurgh
Aug 29 14:30:41 <guyzmo> silvio_ - in that previous file
Aug 29 14:30:43 <guyzmo> it has: 
Aug 29 14:30:43 <guyzmo> FILES_${PN} = "/usr/share/user1/* /usr/share/user2/*"
Aug 29 14:30:52 <guyzmo> so it actually should support wildcards
Aug 29 14:33:58 <kergoth> it does, yes. see the default definitions of those variables in bitbake.conf
Aug 29 15:01:43 <silvio_> thanks
Aug 29 15:53:27 <silvio_> Why a "cross-packet" is installed in the "i686" directory?
Aug 29 16:35:48 <cbrake> looks like we still have that monster gcc-cross-initial fetch ...
Aug 29 16:36:08 <kergoth> heh, i take it khem's change didn't get merged yet?
Aug 29 16:36:22 <cbrake> kergoth: apparently not, its still fetching from git
Aug 29 16:36:27 <kergoth> lame
Aug 29 16:36:41 <kergoth> would be nice if we could do shallow clones, but interaction with SRCREV would be a problem :\
Aug 29 16:37:10 <cbrake> yes, especially as more and more stuff moves to git
Aug 29 16:38:19 <kergoth> yeah
Aug 29 16:48:09 <rburton> could the fetcher do a shallow clone and on update, see if the revision is there and somehow do a shallow fetch if it isn't?
Aug 29 16:48:15 <rburton> (no idea if thats possible though!)
Aug 29 16:53:17 <guyzmo> re
Aug 29 16:55:08 <guyzmo> got one more problem: I'm creating a FILES_${PN}_common from one .bb, to put all config, data and plugins. It works pretty well for almost everything, except for the files that lays in /etc which are put in FILES_${PN}
Aug 29 16:55:18 <guyzmo> how can I put all config files in a separate package ?
Aug 29 16:55:29 <kergoth> put your package earlier in PACKAGES
Aug 29 16:55:31 <kergoth> ordering matters
Aug 29 16:55:37 <kergoth> fist package to claim a path gets it
Aug 29 16:55:43 <kergoth> so prepend with =+ instead of appending with +=
Aug 29 17:05:48 <guyzmo> kergoth - sweet
