15:34.10hillctGood morning all
15:34.34hillctI'm running into a bit of strangeness with recipe file selection
15:36.07hillctI have a recipe callweaver_1.2.0.1.bb with no special version restrictions, but whenever I go to build callweaver, bitbake still selects callweaver_1.1+1.2_rc5.bb
15:36.19hillctno matter wat I do...
15:36.48hillctshort of expliicitly preventing build of rc5 within that recipe, which I shouldn't have to do anyway

15:44.57*** join/#oe Sup3rkiddo (n=sudharsh@unaffiliated/sudharsh)
15:45.00hillctis there a command to clean the recipe file cache or something that I need to do to get this to play nice?
15:46.51*** join/#oe davygravy (n=davygrav@h69-128-157-76.mdtnwi.dsl.dynamic.tds.net)
15:47.08rkirtihillct : do you know about the "preferred"  variable that is used  in multiple -version cases
15:47.09rkirti?
15:47.45rkirtihillct: just a wild guess from my part..but did you check if this preferred thingy is not the problem ?
15:47.47javatexanLaibsch: Okay....I am running the bitbake this time and rerouting the output to a file, I will post on pastebin when done.  I don't know if it is working right.  I cant find the other fss.  I ask it to make jff2 ext2 ext3 squashfs and tar, but all I can find at the end is deploy/images dir, it mad a bzImageXXXXX.bin bzImage-x86.bin and a modulesXXXXXX.tgz
15:47.54hillctrkirti: yes. I'm not specifying it in any of the recipes
15:47.57javatexanwill post later when its done running
15:48.07javatexanif it doesnt work
15:48.11javatexan;)
15:52.45hillctrkirti: that is, yes, I know about it. It was the first thing I checked, as above, and no, it doesn't seem to be the problem
15:53.21hillctunless it's specified somewhere outside the recipe files, but that seems unlikely since I originated this recipe
15:54.02rkirtihillct :ok..yeah for other standard recipes,it stores it somewhere in the conf folder
15:55.02hillctwell, at the moment I'm in the middle of a build, started by explicitly specifying the recipe version
15:55.13hillctafter that, I'll check
15:55.19rkirtihillct: but if you originated the recipe..how come the other unwanted one is also there?
15:55.23mwesterhillct:  Use the debug switch on bitbake as many times as necessary to make it cough up information about what it's doing; one of the things it will tell you is what bb files it is actually parsing.
15:56.02hillctyeah, I can see that it's selecting the wrong one. I can't see why
15:56.43hillctalphebetically callweaver_1.2.0.1 is geater than callweaver_1.1+1.2rc5 right?
15:58.10hillcter, there's actually a dash in there... I went over the version naming convention to be sure I got it right. Just typo'd it here tho
16:02.28rkirtihillct :the callweaver package is by default a part of the OE metadata that you downloaded (atleast my /stuff folder has it and even the googl cached version of the now extinct OE browse tree says so)
16:03.01rkirtihillct :so my guess is that the bb file provided by oe is taken by default ..maybe it was set as preferred version
16:03.23hillctyeah. that's a long story. the guy who checkd that in usd an old version of my recipe and hasn' ever tested it
16:03.35hillctso I'm trying to clean it up
16:03.42hillctit's not in my metadata though
16:05.48hillcthe used a version from back when the package was called OpenPBX, changed the name, but never tested it. It's not at all suitable, so if you're ever inclined to try VOIP, get the working callweaver recipe file from bugzilla. The guy (who aparently clains to be maintaining all VOIP packages) didn't bother to check it in
16:06.24hillctthis is a point of great annoyance for me, as he vilated OE reciew and checking policies, to get it in there to begin with
16:07.24*** join/#oe Mekar-PC (n=christia@user216.82-197-245.netatonce.net)
16:09.45Mekar-PCHello. I've just started using OE. I've succeeded in building my first image with my own packages, but I need to tweak a few things. For one, I would like to get rid of "opkg" since it takes about 50% of the total rootfs size. Futher more I would like to compile all (two) binaries staticly and run "upx" on them.
16:10.19Mekar-PCI can't seem to find documentation detailing the depths in OE.
16:12.04Mekar-PCAlso, what is the recommended approach to change the busybox configuration? Copy package and change defconfig?

16:29.33methril|laptophi
16:30.48mwesterMekar-PC:  Examine the various .bb files for opkg; you'll find one that does not use gpg (which is what takes up most of the space).  If you get rid of opkg entirely, you have no way to install packages on your resulting rootfs.
16:31.33mwesterMekar-PC:  Re: busybox - check the existing .bb files and directories along with the bb files; you'll see how other distros handle overriding the defconfig.
16:31.55Mekar-PCI see.
16:31.57Mekar-PCThanks.
16:33.16Mekar-PCAt the moment I'm struggling in how to make bitbake move a couple of steps backwards. I removed it's unpacked source tree and it will not extract a new copy :\
16:33.18mwesterhillct:  if the existing recipe is broken, and is not used by anyone, it should be removed.  Just delete (or rename) the busted one on your environment, in order to test yours.  then when you submit the new one, note that the old one must be deleted as well.
16:34.30mwesterMekar-PC:  It's dependency-based; it determines that it has already run the task to do the extract based on the presence and timestamp on files in the tmp/stamps directory.
16:34.53Mekar-PCAh. Thanks.
16:34.56mwesterDelete the correct stamps/<filename> files, and it will repeat those tasks.
16:37.37Mekar-PCWorked like a charm, thanks.

16:46.01hillctmwester: I thought I didn't have the conf metadata for the preferred version set, but I must, yet I don't see it. It should be in openembedded/conf right? or am I looking in the wrong place
16:46.44mwesterWhat metadata do you speak of?
16:47.22mwesterPREFERRED_VERSION_packagename can be set in any conf file that bb will parse, regardless of location on filesystem (including local.conf).
16:48.36mwesterBTW, the sort order for package names is not strictly lexical; it has been perturbed in order to handle various exceptions to version naming from upstream sources, so it wouldn't surprise me if the old package is sorting higher for some reason.
