Add Packages to Recipie

Add Packages to Recipie

I have an Image for the wandboard-solo and am trying to figure out the correct package names. For example:

IMAGE_FEATURES += "splash ssh-server-dropbear"

where do I get the name ssh-server-dropbear ? I am trying to add support for httpd, iconv and dev library, and sqlite3 and dev library, what would I put for the feature names ?

If you look in sources/poky/meta/classes/core-image.bblclass there's a
list of supported IMAGE_FEATURES

For other packages which aren't features of the image you would (as I
understand it) add the names of the packages (presumably httpd, sqlite
etc.) in somewhere such as appending an image recipe, creating your own
recipe, or in local.conf if you must

Yeah, that is what I tried but it gave me this :

ERROR: 'httpd' in IMAGE_FEATURES is not a valid image feature.

I suspect that's because there's no "httpd" feature. Is there a
particular reason you want to include "httpd" or are you just trying to
add in a web-server?

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for here but we might be
getting confused over the difference between IMAGE_FEATURES
which are a special kind of tweaking magic and PACKAGES which are build
from recipes. You add packages to images.

For example there's a "lighttpd" recipe which will pull in
http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/lighttpd/

i.e. If you wanted to use this web server then you'd add the package
name "lighttpd" which corresponds to the recipe file here (or similar)

poky/meta/recipes-extended/lighttpd/lighttpd_1.4.33.bb

You'd add to the image you are building, or another image based on that
image with

IMAGE_INSTALL += "\
        lighttpd \
"

Alex

IMAGE_FEATURES is for features (basically collections of packages put
together in a certain way), IMAGE_INSTALL is for packages and
packagegroups. You can use IMAGE_INSTALL_append to add to
IMAGE_INSTALL from your local.conf, but you're far better off creating
a new image recipe and setting IMAGE_INSTALL there.

You may want to read the relevant section of the documentation at
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#usingpoky-extend-customimage.

To find the names to add to IMAGE_INSTALL, you can search the recipe
index at http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/recipes/.
Note that you may need to change the "Branch" selector to whatever
version of The Yocto Project you're using.

Hope this helps,

Ok, thanks for that but what do you do for things that aren't in the extended recipes list ? Specifically, I need sqlite3, sqlite3-devel and iconv

I don't understand your query: I can find sqlite3 and libiconv using
the recipe search link I posted.

You won't find '-devel' packages though, I think the OE convention is
to use '-dev' instead. The recipe index doesn't show them, but most
packages offer '-dbg', '-dev', etc as appropriate.

Paul,
My question is in the vain as Joel's, I need to add the program usbip (I
have already added the kernel modules) to the build, but I cannot find any
recipes for it. I have search in the package manager (smart) and it is not
there either "error: 'usbip' matches no packages". Is there a way for me to
add it during the build process?

Thanks,
Rick

No recipe for usbip seems to exist [1] so you'll need to create a recipe for
it yourself unless someone else in the community has one hiding somewhere. In
the latest version of the manual we have a step-by-step guide to creating a
new recipe; it should be almost completely applicable to current and older
versions of the build system as well:
