FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend fails for systemd

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend fails for systemd

[Fred Ollinger]

I'm trying to change my /etc/systemd/journald.conf file.


I have created a file in:


our_system/recipe-core/systemd_%.bbappend


With the contents:


FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/${PN}:"

I created a directory in the same path called "systemd" and placed our new version of journald.conf in it.

Then I did:

bitbake -c cleanall systemd && bitbake systemd
bitbake -c cleanall our_image && bitbake our_image

Then I checked and the old journald.conf is still installed.

What am I doing wrong?

Frederick

This works only for files listed in SRC_URI, that's not the case for
journald.conf which is included directly in systemd sources.

recipetool appendfile sounds like exactly what you want here.

You can solve this by editing the original journal.conf, creating a
patch with modifications and adding it to your .bbappend

But this will only work if journald.conf are the same in all systemd
versions (since you use a _%.bbappend). A better solution would be append
install task with a copy from your custom journald.conf to install folder,
something like:

do_install_append() {
    cp ${S}/myjournald.conf ${D}/propper/path/to/journald.conf
}

Which is precisely what recipetool appendfile will do for you :)

It's in oe-core/scripts or poky/scripts in any recent release. It'll be in
the PATH after sourcing the setup scripts.
