RPROVIDES problem for kdepimpi

RPROVIDES problem for kdepimpi

[Junqian Gordon Xu]

Similar to the tzdata problem. kdepimpi recipe does not define a package 
${PN}, and bitbake doesn't like the fact that ${PN} is missing in RPROVIDES.

Should we ship an empty kdepimpi? Or any better solution?

kdepimpi-x11 does:

PACKAGES = "libmicrokcal-x11 libmicrokabc-x11 kopi-applet-x11 kopi-x11
kapi-x11 libmicrokdelibs-x11 kammu-x11 libmicrokammu-x11"

Which is buggy, since it will break the -dev and -dbg depchains (and
ships no .debug files).

Change that to:

PACKAGES += " \
libmicrokcal-x11 libmicrokcal-x11-dbg libmicrokcal-x11-dev \
libmicrokabc-x11 libmicrokabc-x11-dbg libmicrokabc-x11-dev\
kopi-applet-x11 kopi-applet-x11-dbg kopi-applet-x11-dev\
kopi-x11 kopi-x11-dbg kopi-x11-dev\
kapi-x11 kapi-x11-dbg kapi-x11-dev\
libmicrokdelibs-x11 libmicrokdelibs-x11-dbg libmicrokdelibs-x11-dev\
kammu-x11 kammu-x11-dbg\
libmicrokammu-x11 libmicrokammu-x11-dbg libmicrokammu-x11-dev"

ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN} = "1"
RDEPENDS_${PN} = "kopi-applet-x11 kopi-x11 kapi-x11 kammu-x11"

FILES_....-dev
FILES_....-dbg
etc.

regards,

Koen

Where is the issue? Why should there be a RPROVIDES=kdepimpi?

bitbake kdepimpi

It comes from bitbake.conf:

RDEPENDS_${PN}-dev = "${PN} (= ${DEBPV})"
RRECOMMENDS_${PN}-dbg = "${PN} (= ${DEBPV})"

If ${PN} doesn't exist these entries upset bitbake.

The usual solution is to override these with something which makes sense
for the packages. The -dev abd -dbg package should always exist
otherwise the depchain magic for pulling in dev and dbg packages will
break.
