**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue May 31 02:59:58 2016 May 31 06:29:22 Trying to setup/redo my package feed. I've rsynced up my ipk folder to my server. I use distro-feed-configs. My device does not find my new packages. Do I need to generate a package list before/after rsyncing? May 31 06:56:22 Figured it out. Had to build an image for the Package index to be updated. May 31 10:02:43 tasslehoff: bitbake package-index will do that May 31 10:07:23 bluelightning: thanks. May 31 13:10:12 there's the idea to use ccache for speeding up rebuilds when the sstate-cache had to be wiped. at least to use ccache for -native recipes May 31 13:10:19 what is a good argument against it? May 31 14:12:15 dv_: ccache is useful, but has two potential downsides, one, it's possible to corrupt the cache and get inexplicable failures. rare, but i've seen it, and if it happens you're unlikely to remember ccache and think that's the cause, so you can chase your tail for a while May 31 14:12:31 two, i don't know if it retains the cache if you rebuild or move the toolchain itself, which can happen May 31 14:13:09 two being a theoretical issue, i haven't tested it May 31 15:54:06 Where can PREFERRED_VERSION_ be put? I don't want it in a global conf like local.conf May 31 15:59:43 Rallis: that's the only place it can be. putting it in a recipe wouldn't make any sense May 31 16:00:11 that said, if you want to change the default preferences of recipes without the user having to specify, you might be able to leverage DEFAULT_PREFERENCE May 31 16:00:14 really depends on your needs May 31 16:20:57 Rallis: PREFERRED_VERSION_ may go in distro o machine config as well May 31 16:21:30 kergoth: I have been able to share the local conf across multiple products (one less git repo to branch). Looks like I can just put DEFAULT_PREFERENCE into an append in my layer. Thanks! I hadn't run across that before May 31 16:21:32 any global config file, yes May 31 17:40:55 mckoan|away, Rallis: not in MACHINE.conf generally speaking. Only *very* *special* stuff may do that, and almost always your stuff isn't special enough. May 31 18:17:20 Maybe I missed the announcemente, but when support for Python 2 in BitBake is going to be dropped? May 31 18:21:17 I don't think there's been an official date announced for the switch yet May 31 18:21:29 at least ther'es no mention of one in the yocto project status emails, and haven't seen any separate mail from richard May 31 18:21:31 just 'soon' May 31 18:22:30 Ok. :-) May 31 18:22:54 I seem to remember a date like 2020, maybe for openembedded-core? May 31 18:25:03 ah, yes: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/openembedded-core/2016-April/120597.html May 31 18:27:49 yeah, as with most other distros i'm sure we'll have both available on target for quite some time May 31 18:28:47 Cool. Thanks for the info, kergoth. May 31 18:29:00 np May 31 23:28:33 Does anyone run Qt's lrelease in bitbake? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Jun 01 02:59:59 2016
