[PATCH 0/1] Solve Bug 2205 - package.bbclass/linux_so never calls ldconfig

[Andrei Gherzan]

This is because needs_ldconfig is a local function variable. A way to solve
would be to define this variable global but this is a discouraged. Another
solution would be to return this value in linux_so and i will patch the package
class with this fix.

The following changes since commit 190f6d791d51aaa4cfb9f1cf932bc205ff674fb5:

  runqemu-internal: Add console=tty for qemuppc and NFS (2012-04-06 01:12:47 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:

[PATCH 1/1] package.bbclass: needs_ldconfig from linux_so is needed in global namespace

[Andrei Gherzan]

"The suite of statements in a function definition executes with a local namespace
that is different from the global namespace. This means that all variables created
within a function are local to that function. When the suite finishes, these
working variables are discarded."

In this way the needs_ldconfig variable in linux_so never gets True in the statements
below this function. As global statement is generally discouraged, a return value
would be a clean and fast way to solve this issue.

Shouldn't this be something like:

ldconfig = linux_so(root, dirs, file)
needs_ldconfig = needs_ldconfig or ldconfig

or can this only get called once?

Cheers,

I've checked and it is called multiple times as I suspected. It needs
the fix I described. I've gone ahead, tweaked and merged this I'd like
this fixed in the release.
