Subject: what exactly does the "meta-systemd" layer do?
Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2016 05:11:41 -0500 (EST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.20.1612080508460.13529@ca624034.mitel.com> (raw)
almost certainly a dumb question, but what is the purpose of the
meta-openembedded/meta-systemd layer? i can see that the general
structure of that layer is a pile of bbappend files of the form:
RPROVIDES_${PN} += "${PN}-systemd"
RREPLACES_${PN} += "${PN}-systemd"
RCONFLICTS_${PN} += "${PN}-systemd"
so, in the case of, say, dropbear (which, from oe-core, is already a
systemd-controlled activity), i see a simple renaming of the package
produced. so instead of "dropbear", i'll get "dropbear-systemd".
what am i missing? what is the purpose of that layer?
