**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Aug 31 19:23:55 2020 Aug 31 20:41:20 fray: I was trying to add u-a for glibc-utils but then I see that it will add cyclic deps due to DEPENDS added in update-alternatives bbclass long time ago by your commit https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=56a59ef12936dcc6464cf1d43dda6957a5aa8c65 , we also added a dependency on native version via Aug 31 20:41:22 https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=00e1e87d0dcf13f3b30682f1fb066f7fa4eed205 Aug 31 20:41:47 let me look.. sec Aug 31 20:42:07 fray: do we still need to add virtual/update-alternatives as build time dep ? I have forgotten about the context why this was needed Aug 31 20:42:33 not sure.. looking Aug 31 20:42:58 in the past update-alternatives could be provided by either the update-alternatives package, busybox or dpkg? Aug 31 20:43:03 there were three providers at the time Aug 31 20:43:13 this bug might add some context https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3691 Aug 31 20:43:14 ahh must have been 'opkg' not dpkg Aug 31 20:43:40 yes now dpkg and opkg do provide virtual/update-alternatives Aug 31 20:44:03 question is do we need them during build time Aug 31 20:44:20 or is virtual/update-alternatives-native enough Aug 31 20:44:20 so 3691 is SDK needs bash.. there is an SDK package that is supposed to provide all of the SDK dependencies (nativesdk) to allow this to work Aug 31 20:48:01 My memory is virtual/update-alaternatives was needed for the run-time (on-target) package install.. while the virtual/update-laternatives-native was for the cross-install Aug 31 20:48:26 Hello. I use bmaptool to deploy/install images. Is there a framework for assigning an identity to a device after image installation? Aug 31 21:19:07 fray: then it should be rdep and not dep right ? Aug 31 21:19:42 bantu: you might want to set it up perhaps with /etc/os-release Aug 31 21:20:48 khem: Oh, I was for example talking about generating and collecting ssh host keys, and generating TLS key material and getting it signed by a CA. Aug 31 21:22:43 bantu: there is no single point to do it, perhaps AFAIK **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Aug 31 23:04:12 2020 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Sep 01 02:59:57 2020
