**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed May 25 02:59:58 2016 May 25 06:53:32 good morning May 25 08:22:25 I have an ancient product stuck on 1.4, and I would really like qt 5.6 there. anyone got an opinion on how to achieve that in the most pain-free way? May 25 08:23:19 I'm stuck at linux 2.6.39 (and therefore systemd 204), and the last time I checked that meant I can not move beyond 1.4 May 25 08:26:46 tasslehoff: grab the oldest meta-qt5 branch with that release in and see how much breaks, then weigh up how much effort it would be to sort those out vs how much effort to add your old kernel to a modern release May 25 08:38:24 rburton: do you think a modern release can work with systemd_204 and a kernel without device tree? May 25 08:39:37 yeah May 25 08:40:47 rburton: ah. then I guess that is what I will try. updating meta-qt5 while keeping other layers at 1.4 is just a pain. May 25 13:42:09 hi May 25 13:42:36 is there a way of not inherit a class in a bbappend? May 25 20:46:56 * armpit needs a beer May 25 21:43:06 armpit, a bit early for you ? May 25 21:54:29 not today May 25 22:06:15 Has anyone looked at making APPEND be obeyed by non-syslinux/grub/gummiboot bootloaders? I.e. we could write a u-boot environment file for beaglebone black to make it obeyed, presumably? May 25 22:06:24 It'd clearly have to be per-MACHINE May 25 22:06:59 though admittedly it'd be faster to just manually edit the cmdline if you're just testing something May 25 22:07:14 still, if i shove 'quiet splash plymouth:ignore-serial-consoles' into APPEND, it'd be nice if that was obeyed by everyone May 25 22:07:18 * kergoth ponders May 25 22:08:00 if we're going to change anything about it would we not start with the name? May 25 22:08:38 that'd be nice, yes. i think the feature has value, but you're right, that's a pretty crappy name. it probably made sense in the context of a class or something, but once it hit configuration metadata it's now lacking sufficient context May 25 22:08:54 presumably mirrored the 'APPEND' lines in the syslinux config and whantot May 25 22:09:58 Once I get wks.in support merged, it'd be nice to stop hardcoding serial console device names in there, and it'd easier to obey APPEND and set that than start manually using SERIAL_CONSOLE and whatnot May 25 22:10:24 i.e. APPEND ?= "quiet splash plymouth:ignore-serial-consoles ${@'console=${APPEND_SERIAL_CONSOLE}' if '${SERIAL_CONSOLE}' else ''} console=tty0"; APPEND_SERIAL_CONSOLE ?= "${@','.join(reversed('${SERIAL_CONSOLE}'.split()))}" May 25 22:10:29 then you could: APPEND_append = " kgdbwait kgdboc=${APPEND_SERIAL_CONSOLE}" **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu May 26 02:59:58 2016
