Hi Alex, I'm upgrading my layer from kirkstone to scarthgap and observed that my image failed due to gpl3 license.
I want to conveniently install whole alsa-utils except for parts where license forbids me to do it. After your path I would need to list all alsa-utils subpackages except the scripts. And on top of that during every core layer update I'd have to check if there is not a new one. So from this point of view, your statement "There is no reason to keep the recipe separate: bash dependency is not a problem until the alsa-utils-scripts package is explicitly installed into a target image." Is not true, it's a problem for maintenance. Would something like this be accepted when I'd submit it? This would return alsa-utils package installation to status before your commit, while still keeping alsa-utils single recipe. diff --git a/meta/recipes-multimedia/alsa/alsa-utils_1.2.10.bb b/meta/recipes-multimedia/alsa/alsa-utils_1.2.10.bb index 4e5ed8dfa0..5f4048938f 100644 --- a/meta/recipes-multimedia/alsa/alsa-utils_1.2.10.bb +++ b/meta/recipes-multimedia/alsa/alsa-utils_1.2.10.bb @@ -56,10 +56,10 @@ ALSA_UTILS_PKGS = "\ alsa-utils-alsactl \ alsa-utils-alsaloop \ alsa-utils-alsaucm \ - alsa-utils-scripts \ alsa-utils-nhltdmicinfo \ " +PACKAGES += "alsa-utils-scripts" PACKAGES += "${ALSA_UTILS_PKGS}" RDEPENDS:${PN} += "${ALSA_UTILS_PKGS}" Thanks, Peter -----Original Message----- From: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org <openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org> On Behalf Of Alexander Kanavin via lists.openembedded.org Sent: Monday, June 6, 2022 14:01 To: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org Cc: Kanavin, Alexander (EXT) (Linutronix GmbH) <a...@linutronix.de> Subject: [OE-core] [PATCH 13/21] alsa-utils-scripts: merge into alsa-utils > There is no reason to keep the recipe separate: bash dependency is not a > problem until the alsa-utils-scripts package is explicitly installed into a > target image. > > Signed-off-by: Alexander Kanavin <a...@linutronix.de> > ---
