Subject: [PATCH 1/4] wic-tools.inc: add
Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2026 03:54:08 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701075411.1092848-2-twoerner@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260701075411.1092848-1-twoerner@gmail.com>
wic invokes a range of host-side tools (parted, mkdosfs, mcopy,
mkfs.*, grub-mkimage, ...) at image-creation time, depending on the
partition types and bootloaders in a .wks file. The set wic could
invoke is enumerated in its NATIVE_RECIPES table, and matches the
helpers wic-tools lists in its DEPENDS.
Refactor that helper list into a shared wic-tools.inc (WIC_TOOLS) and
switch wic-tools to it, so the canonical list lives in one place and
can be reused by other recipes that need the same set.
