[PATCH 0/1] Fix for host conamination

[Saul Wold]

This address a problem where a intltool.m4 check will fail if 
the host system does not have XML::Parser installed.


The following changes since commit 0a1dedeb8eea4e230b47d1516b3e6e90495fe49d:

[PATCH 1/1] intltool: remove XML::Parser check

[Saul Wold]

Add Patch to disable the XML::Parser check in the target
intltool.m4, this check will find the host (not native)
XML::Parser if it's installed possibly causing Host
contamination, but will also fail configuration if XML::Parser
is not installed on the host.

Since we know that XML::Parser is installed on the image, we don't
really need this check, so comment it out.

if it is installed then why does it fail to detect it ?

Because the recipes that depend on intltool do not inherit perlnative, 
the recipes in question are gconf and shared-mime-info.  They depend on 
intltool, but do not need to directly inherit perlnative (at least 
according to RP).

why dont they need to inherit perlnative ? If they depend on intltool which
expects that its dependees inherit perlnative. I am just worried where this
may cause issues. There might be other recipes which should need XML parser
and may not get it since we remove the test here.

All of the intltool scripts have the correct paths to perl already
embedded into them and can find perl fine. If the recipe needs perl for
some other reason than intltool, it needs perlnative but it if only
needs perl for intltool, we shouldn't need the dependency. The .m4 macro
checks are well intended but don't fit the way we use perl. I really
don't want to end up in a position where intltool automatically means we
have to add perlnative as a dependency and we've previously seen many
problems related to that.

Cheers,

Richard

I see. I think this should be added to comments somewhere may be in
intltool recipe itself
and I hope this also works for target intltool recipe.

agreed.

[PATCH 1/1] intltool: remove XML::Parser check

[Saul Wold]

Add Patch to disable the XML::Parser check in the target
intltool.m4, this check will find the host (not native)
XML::Parser if it's installed possibly causing Host
contamination, but will also fail configuration if XML::Parser
is not installed on the host.

Since we know that XML::Parser is installed on the image, we don't
really need this check, so comment it out.

From RP in mail thread:
