**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon May 15 03:00:04 2017 May 15 06:47:34 good morning May 15 08:22:03 I want to extend a PACKAGECONFIG variable in a bbappend May 15 08:22:16 however, the default PACKAGECONFIG is set with the ??= assignment May 15 08:22:52 so how do I properly append to this? how does the append operator interact with the "weakness" of the ??= operator? May 15 09:05:59 dv_: _append should append to the default set with ??= though I'll admit I have not tried it - did you try it? May 15 10:13:17 Hello all, May 15 10:14:05 could somebody help me with building dts for marvell pxa270 and appending it to kernel May 15 10:14:07 ? May 15 10:20:50 I have tried to base my board dts file on pxa27x.dtsi May 15 10:21:00 but dtc complains there May 15 10:21:16 I have not pass the -i param to dtc May 15 10:21:24 could that be a case? May 15 12:12:18 out of pure curiosity, what does OE need socat for during the build? May 15 12:12:41 LetoThe2nd: its normally used for dealing with http proxies May 15 12:12:50 nrossi: ah ok. May 15 13:00:48 how do I install a file into S May 15 13:00:52 before compiling May 15 13:01:10 I added it to SRC_URI, thats not enough I guess? May 15 13:04:01 heeen: you mean, you want in-tree compilation? or waht? May 15 13:04:23 I want to add a makefile to S May 15 13:04:46 guess I'll create a patch that adds the file instead May 15 13:04:57 I thought there was an easier way without patch May 15 13:05:41 heeen: SRC_URI can do some tricks, depending on its search path. but putting a makefile into S is not something its meant to do AFAICS May 15 13:06:49 you can just tell the SRC_URI to put the file in $S instead of $WORKDIR May 15 13:07:50 using ;basepath=${BP} in the URI May 15 13:08:00 erm, subdir= even May 15 13:08:13 (assuming default S) May 15 13:08:38 modern bitbake lets you do subdir=${S} but older releases always prefixed the path with $WORKDIR so that wouldn't work May 15 13:15:06 thanks! May 15 13:30:28 somehow I can't get the fetch to work May 15 13:30:48 SRC_URI = "\ May 15 13:30:51 git://pdfium.googlesource.com/pdfium.git;protocol=https;branch=master \ May 15 13:30:53 file://pdfium.pro;subdir=${S} \ May 15 13:30:55 " May 15 13:31:07 the git fetch does not work I think May 15 13:31:17 what happens? May 15 13:31:47 oh it actually fetched now, but not with -fc fetch May 15 13:36:37 hm it doesn't put the pro file into the git checkout May 15 13:36:57 did you set S? May 15 13:37:36 remember i said older releases were buggy with subdir so try just putting the bit after WORKDIR as the value to subdir May 15 13:42:06 rburton: I am missing a piece here May 15 13:42:13 it checks out into git May 15 13:42:42 but the patch and pro file always go into something named pdfium-1.0 May 15 13:43:40 S = "${WORKDIR}/git" May 15 13:43:46 that, probably May 15 13:50:44 yes May 15 14:32:43 hi May 15 14:33:05 is it possible to have a separate work directory based on $DISTRO ? May 15 14:33:44 or tmp maybe May 15 14:35:14 sure May 15 14:35:18 just set TMPDIR as appropriate May 15 14:35:35 the default is tmp-${TCLIBC} after all May 15 14:36:11 ok May 15 17:29:19 I have this line, but it does not install headers May 15 17:29:24 FILES_${PN}-dev = "${S}/public/*.h" May 15 17:54:35 heeen: not += instead of = May 15 17:54:36 ? May 15 17:54:58 * hrw is long time gone from OE so can be wrong May 15 18:13:19 heeen: you need to install those headers in a do_install() into ${D} first May 15 18:14:00 ie mkdir -p ${D}${includedir}; install ${S}/public/*h ${D}${includedir}/ May 15 18:14:24 FILES_* says what files in the installed staging tree to package up. if you don't install anything then it can't package them May 15 20:47:34 Marex, so we have now in OE all the sparse bits. Only the kernel part is missing May 15 20:47:36 https://tinyurl.com/kwk3xpr **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue May 16 03:00:02 2017
