Hi all, I was looking at the opkg intercept functionality, and if I'm understanding this properly, it looks like it changes the PATH so that e.g. ldconfig is redirected to the script under /usr/share/opkg/intercept/ldconfig when running postinst scripts. That way, when installing a bunch of libraries, ldconfig can be run once at the end rather than once for every package.
However, the postinst scripts for libraries are generated with ldconfig_postinst_fragment() in meta/classes/package.bbclass, which looks like this: ldconfig_postinst_fragment() { if [ x"$D" = "x" ]; then if [ -x /sbin/ldconfig ]; then /sbin/ldconfig ; fi fi } Because this script uses the full absolute path to ldconfig, the opkg intercept ldconfig script isn't being invoked. I verified this by putting an echo in /usr/share/opkg/intercept/ldconfig, which I saw only when I changed my package's postinst script to ldconfig_postinst_fragment() { if [ x"$D" = "x" ]; then ldconfig fi } In the history of package.bbclass, it originally used to look like this, but was changed in 2008 in a sync from OE.dev. Is this expected behavior? Is opkg intercept still supported? Should we fix this, and if so, what would be a safe way to do it?
