Oh, on the subject of out-of-control dependency chains, my other pet bugbear at the moment is rpm-native: "rpm-native" -> "bzip2-native" "rpm-native" -> "db-native" "rpm-native" -> "perl-native" "rpm-native" -> "openssl-native" "rpm-native" -> "expat-native" "rpm-native" -> "autoconf-native" "rpm-native" -> "automake-native" "rpm-native" -> "libtool-native" "rpm-native" -> "gnu-config-native" "rpm-native" -> "gettext-native" "rpm-native" -> "python-native" "rpm-native" -> "acl-native" "rpm-native" -> "elfutils-native" "rpm-native" -> "libpcre-native" "rpm-native" -> "zlib-native" "rpm-native" -> "popt-native" "rpm-native" -> "attr-native" As far as I can tell, the native rpm is never being used in any way which requires it to have openssl, and I suspect the same is probably true for some of the other libs above. Does anybody happen to know what features rpm-native actually requires for correct operation? p. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
