However, this series doesn't do that. The first three patches are adding missing inherits, or fixing a bug in numpy that we were lucky enough not to hit. The next two are the key patches, specifically "classes/pkgconfig: ration= alise variable usage" is the meat of the series that actually changes the variables and contains the rationale. The next two are improvements for pkgconf that we might as well apply now= . Finally, a controversial patch to drop support for a working menuconfig o= n kernels older than 5.15. If there is a need to support 5.10 then the smal= l fix to the kernel Makefiles should be an easy backport. This patch is no= t needed though, and can be dropped. Cheers, Ross Ross Burton (8): pkgconfig: inherit the pkgconfig class perf: inherit the pkgconfig class python3-numpy: backport a Meson patch to fix pkg-config lookups classes/pkgconfig: move variable exports to the class classes/pkgconfig: rationalise variable usage pkgconf: small cleanups pkgconf: add pkg-config-native to the nativesdk package kernel: remove pkg-config variables for old (<5.19) kernels meta/classes-recipe/cml1.bbclass | 7 ++-- meta/classes-recipe/cross-canadian.bbclass | 3 +- meta/classes-recipe/cross.bbclass | 4 +-- meta/classes-recipe/kernel.bbclass | 13 ------- meta/classes-recipe/native.bbclass | 1 - meta/classes-recipe/nativesdk.bbclass | 3 -- meta/classes-recipe/pkgconfig.bbclass | 6 ++++ meta/conf/bitbake.conf | 14 ++++---- .../pkgconf/pkgconf/pkg-config-native.in | 3 +- .../recipes-devtools/pkgconf/pkgconf_2.5.1.bb | 14 ++++++-- .../pkgconfig/pkgconfig_git.bb | 4 +-- .../python3-numpy/0001-python-sysroot.patch | 34 +++++++++++++++++++ .../python/python3-numpy_2.3.5.bb | 1 + meta/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-yocto.inc | 8 ++--- meta/recipes-kernel/perf/perf.bb | 3 +- 15 files changed, 72 insertions(+), 46 deletions(-) create mode 100644 meta/recipes-devtools/python/python3-numpy/0001-pytho= n-sysroot.patch --=20 2.43.0
