I fully agree with this patchset. The old way of defining seems a bit hacky. Also even if you follow the documented way to create postinstallation scripts [1] you still get noisy warnings which seem like a problem.
Thanks for the effort!

On the other hand, 'exit 1' is also the way to indicate an error in the script. The patches decouple these two things. 2) Scriptlets should be executed using '-e', otherwise failing commands in the middle of the scriptlet will not be reported as such. 3) The patchset also adds a convenient shortcut for deferring scriptlets to first boot execution: pkg_postinst_ontarget_PACKAGENAME() { # Actions to carry out on the device go here .... } The following changes since commit 0c537554fc2cf58a9cbfeaf39ed918c607483dce: testimage: enable gi test suite (2018-01-29 10:31:58 +0000) are available in the Git repository at: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky-contrib akanavin/dnf-rpm4-postinst-fix http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=akanavin/dnf-rpm4-postinst-fix Alexander Kanavin (7): postinst_intercepts: add a delay_to_first_boot hook meta/lib/oe/rootfs.py: separate first boot deferral logic into a separate function meta/lib/oe/rootfs.py: do not execute defer_to_first_boot when processing postinst_intercept hooks package.bbclass: add support for pkg_postinst_ontarget() meta/lib/oe/package_manager.py: deprecate 'exit 1' as a way to defer to first boot package_rpm.bbclass: run pre/post installation scriptlets using sh -e rootfs.py: change the notice about deferring scripts to first boot from warning to a note .../recipes-test/postinst/postinst_1.0.bb | 14 ++------ meta/classes/package.bbclass | 20 +++++++++++ meta/classes/package_rpm.bbclass | 8 ++--- meta/lib/oe/package_manager.py | 3 ++ meta/lib/oe/rootfs.py | 39 +++++++++++++--------- scripts/postinst-intercepts/delay_to_first_boot | 2 ++ 6 files changed, 54 insertions(+), 32 deletions(-) create mode 100644 scripts/postinst-intercepts/delay_to_first_boot -- 2.15.1 -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
