I'm fairly sure these patches will not make it to pyro - they are for 2.4 only. So everyone will have a few months to fix up their layers before 2.4 is out. > Around the release of morty the same happened with libwnck3 which then made morty fail for > anyone using libwnck3. We probably should have a section in the release notes that lists removed recipes. There are more layers than meta-oe, obviously they can't be all fixed in sync with oe-core. >> For what it's worth, glmark2 was fixed in 2014: >> https://github.com/glmark2/glmark2/commit/499aa81a68fb4c8aac1c80f0d6a4cce05941c4cc >> >> glcompbench appears to be a fork of glmark, so the same fix should be >> trivial to apply. > > I agree that the it is an easy fix for glmark2 and probably not that hard with glcompbench, > nonetheless its sometimes nice to get a head start before things break. I would rather remove glcompbench, as it was last updated in 2012 upstream. If someone objects, they should step up and actually maintain the code and the recipe. Generally, such fixes scale poorly in the absence of proper recipe maintainers: we are lucky there's just two recipes, but what if there was twenty? Alex
