**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Nov 02 03:00:00 2016 Nov 02 07:35:57 morning Nov 02 07:37:50 morning Nov 02 13:03:39 can anyone merge the LEDE changes for opkg PROVIDES handling into OpenWrt ? Nov 02 14:10:22 when i try to build a package using the SDK it seems to want to build every dependency of the package even when those are provided by OpenWRT already. is this really necessary? Nov 02 14:47:17 Shred00: because it still requires the headers and (binary) libraries to link against, and the SDK doesn't provide either out of the box Nov 02 14:49:36 so isn't that the difference between a "Build Depends" and a "Runtime Depends"? Nov 02 15:07:49 Shred00: the build system does not know/support runtime-only dependencies, there are either build+runtime or only buildtime dependencies Nov 02 15:08:56 ok. i understand then. seems like it would be a good enhancement to avoid this deep descending package dependency tree building just to get a couple of packages out. Nov 02 15:10:50 Shred00: most dependencies are buildtime dependencies, there are only a few that are runtime only (basically only packages where no compilation is involved) Nov 02 15:11:14 heh. yeah. my particular use-case at the moment. :-) Nov 02 16:10:35 Isn't this what EXTRA_DEPENDS does? **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Nov 03 02:59:59 2016
