Hi Paul, Thanks for the contribution! The recipe itself is simple enough, so no concerns there. The medium sized question is the dependency on cockpit, which is maintained in meta-webserver (from the check I just did on the layer index). meta-webserver is currently in the layer conf file in the LAYERRECOMMENDS_virtualization-layer variable (but not mentioned in the README.md .. I can fix that part though). So we do already have recipes in meta-virt that need meta-webserver. I'm just pondering whether adding this bumps it up to LAYERDEPENDS_virtualization-layer. I think we can still hold off on that, but it would be nice to put a comment above LAYERRECOMMENDS_virtualization-layer to indicate that this package also required meta-webserver The next question is: can you put a description of how someone would test / use the package into the commit message ? Nothing elaborate, but just something to help me later when I'm potentially upreving it. Last question .. the recipe excludes musl (fine with me), but are there any arch considerations ? I don't think there should be given how it is configured and built and the description, but if there are, we should just restrict it up front versus someone asking questions about riscv64 later :) Cheers, Bruce > > Waiting for your review, feel free to ask any questions or remarks. > Regards, > Paul Le Guen de Kerneizon, Savoir-faire Linux > > Paul Le Guen de Kerneizon (1): > cockpit-machines: add recipe > > .../cockpit-machines/cockpit-machines_346.bb | 30 +++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 30 insertions(+) > create mode 100644 recipes-extended/cockpit-machines/cockpit-machines_346.bb > > -- > 2.34.1 > > > -- - Thou shalt not follow the NULL pointer, for chaos and madness await thee at its end - "Use the force Harry" - Gandalf, Star Trek II
