X-BeenThere: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.12 Precedence: list List-Id: Patches and discussions about the oe-core layer List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sat, 02 Aug 2014 12:18:32 -0000 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII reading yocto dev manual, on post-installation scripts, and there's this note: "Equivalent support for pre-install, pre-uninstall, and post-uninstall scripts exist by way of pkg_preinst, pkg_prerm, and pkg_postrm, respectively. These scrips work in exactly the same way as does pkg_postinst with the exception that they run at different times. Also, because of when they run, they are not applicable to being run at image creation time like pkg_postinst." i would have thought that pkg_preinst_* would still be run at image creation time, no? or am i misunderstanding something? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
