[PATCH] bitbake.conf: Add run-parts to HOSTTOOLS

[PATCH] bitbake.conf: Add run-parts to HOSTTOOLS

[André Draszik]

From: André Draszik <adraszik@tycoint.com>

ca-certificates runs a postinst task, update-ca-certificates,
which ultimately wants to execute run-parts.

Is run-parts guaranteed to be available on the host?

IMHO it would be better to ensure that run-parts is in recipe-sysroot-
native when installing ca-certificates. PACKAGE_WRITE_DEPS can be set
in ca-certificates.bb for that. I'm just not sure about what provides
run-parts in OE.

We definitely should not be doing this, there is clearly a dependency
missing somewhere else. ca-certificates should depend on whatever
provides that...

In OE, run-parts is provided by debianutils, or by busybox, both of which
don't have a native version in OE.

ca-certificates seems to always have relied on run-parts from the host
environment. OE even carries a patch to make it work with run-parts from
Fedora.

What would be the preferred way to resolve this so?


Cheers,
Andre'

The patches I have in master-next which enable a native version of
debianutils and then add it as a dependency from ca-certificates?

Richard

Cool! Hadn't seen those.
