**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Dec 21 03:00:00 2016 Dec 21 09:18:41 whats the state of meta-qt5 ? is there a recommendation on which branch to use ? right now looking at the morty branch. Dec 21 10:22:16 morning Dec 21 13:59:22 Why is there no "armv7a-neon-vfpv3" but there is "armv7a-neon-vfpv4" in https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core/blob/master/meta/conf/machine/include/arm/arch-armv7a.inc? Dec 21 14:01:17 Hi likewise Dec 21 14:01:23 Hi Crofton|work Dec 21 14:01:29 Holidays are always a bad time to ask such questions :) Dec 21 14:01:46 |work ? Dec 21 14:01:56 sort of :) Dec 21 14:02:05 ids the machine I work at mostly Dec 21 15:41:56 holiwhat ? Dec 21 15:42:14 I don't know that word Dec 21 15:47:20 is anyone working on updating apache2? It looks like the download file was moved into the archive and there is a new version. Dec 21 16:03:40 ls -al Dec 21 17:03:41 CWiz: someone will get to it but patches welcome. Dec 21 17:53:57 abelloni: holidays are the days you work on fun projects Dec 21 17:54:10 or at least supposed to Dec 21 22:06:38 I just merged a patch that makes opkg sysconfdir and localstatedir configurable, via --syscondir and --localstatedir, which works great for the target package, but breaks on the native recipe Dec 21 22:06:54 since localstatedir for the native recipe expands to the sysroot value Dec 21 22:07:27 so, I am tempted to use EXTRA_OECONF to define the correct values, but I wanted to check if there is a standard way to fix this sort of thing? Dec 21 22:09:40 the sysroot value *is* correct. arguments like that are absolute, not relative Dec 21 22:09:44 what exactly are you looking for? Dec 21 22:12:42 OE is building a native opkg, which it then uses with an offline root to the rootfs Dec 21 22:13:38 when it uses the native opkg with the offline root, opkg looks for the status file on the path constructed by what was provided by --localstatedir + /lib/status Dec 21 22:14:18 on that case, it fails since localstatedir is set to the sysroot value, instead of to the value inside the image Dec 21 22:14:50 I mean, it doesn't fail there, but it fails when further down the line we try to access the status file, which doesn't exist on ${D}/var/lib Dec 21 22:15:52 could use inline python to get the values of localstatedir and sysconfdir relative to prefix Dec 21 22:15:57 os.path.relpath() Dec 21 22:18:11 mmm, yeah, then pass those values as ---sysconfdir and --localstatedir Dec 21 22:19:13 in theory you could try overriding prefix entirely, to stop being the absolute path into the sysroot and instead be the path relative to the root, but you'd have to change how the files are staged into the sysroot, since currently native is expected to be built this way Dec 21 22:19:43 in most cases that would fail unless the software knows how to find paths relative to its own location, of course Dec 21 22:22:05 I think I am going to try the os.path.relpath first, that sounds safer, =) Dec 21 22:23:12 I wanted to make sure I was not doing something clearly off, but I guess opkg needs to be a bit special since it works in offline root mode Dec 21 22:23:17 thanks a bunch for the pointers **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Dec 22 02:59:59 2016
