Poky core-image-minimal fails to build with package_deb

Poky core-image-minimal fails to build with package_deb

[Jeremy Powell]

Hi All,

I'm trying to build poky from the git master head, but there are several 
problems in the DpkgIndexer class in ./meta/lib/oe/package_manager.py

For instance:
cd %s; PSEUDO_UNLOAD=1 %s packages > Packages
should be
cd %s; PSEUDO_UNLOAD=1 %s packages . > Packages

The generation of the "Release" file also appears to be incorrect (maybe 
it is also missing a trailing period?).

Finally, the creation of the Packages.gz file causes an error, but I'm 
not currently familiar enough with Yocto to fix it, but perhaps someone 
else might be able to help? (Seems to me that this part of the build is 
running the commands in parallel but needs to performed be serially)

Kind regards,
Jeremy

Can you file a bug for these issues please (reply here with the number
so it doesn't get lost).

Hi Ross - thanks for your reply. I've created an account on 
bugzilla.yoctoproject.org, but its not clear to me which product this 
bug would refer to. Meta-yocto or  OE-Core perhaps?

oe-core, component deployment.

Thanks again, I've opened a bug #6047:
https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6047

I've also attached a patch to it which resolves the issue for me.

It would be good if your bug report explains what is going wrong
(and why if you understand it), not just that "it fails and here's
the patch".  This will aid not only in understanding the problem but
also for future searches of the bugzilla database for similar issues.

FWIW I've sent out some patches which address this problem and some
others I spotted.

Can you revert this patch and try again?
