**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Mar 25 03:00:04 2017 Mar 25 03:02:48 maybe because the package is buried two variables deep in a variable that is generated? packagegroup-core-x11 creates packagegroup-core-x11-util and it's in there where xinput-calibrator is found? Mar 25 03:02:57 or maybe it's late on a friday ;-) Mar 25 03:12:40 shouldn't matter, though, bitbake sees the variable change and knows to rebuild the packagegroup Mar 25 03:12:45 * kergoth shrugs Mar 25 06:33:48 kergoth: unbelievable Mar 25 06:34:08 kergoth: the magic formula is: RDEPENDS_packagegroup-core-x11-utils_remove_pn-packagegroup-core-x11 = "xinput-calibrator" Mar 25 07:02:27 apparently it only works from local.conf? i can't put it in, say, my image recipe? :-( Mar 25 09:32:26 tlwoerner: recipes can't modify each other Mar 25 09:33:03 tlwoerner: imagine if two different images wanted that pacakage group recipe built differently Mar 25 15:16:29 RP: that's what led me to want to put that line in my image recipe Mar 25 15:16:47 RP: in my mind my image recipe is little more than a list of what i want (and don't want) in my image Mar 25 15:17:20 RP: so if i don't want a particular package in myimage1, then i thought the _remove line should go there :-) Mar 25 15:18:12 RP: i'm not so concerned about the details, i'm glad i have it working :-D Mar 25 17:27:13 hi, can you point me to an example package to split the .debug across multiple -dbg packages? regardless how I try to define the other -dbg packages everything ends un in ${PN}-dbg anyway :-/ Mar 25 17:31:04 I have a .bb that creates a library and some optional utils so I only want ${bindir}/.debug/foo when foo-dbg gets installed and not as part of libblah-dbg Mar 25 17:54:35 menomc: that is pretty much coded into package.bbclass unfortunatey Mar 25 17:58:53 :( thanks for confirming it **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 26 03:00:03 2017
