Hi Andre, the problem is that if you put the package in RRECOMMENDS, yocto will still build python3-numpy and python3-matplotlib even if you add it to BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS
from https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#var-RRECOMMENDS The package manager will automatically install the RRECOMMENDS list of packages when installing the built package. However, you can prevent listed packages from being installed by using the BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS, NO_RECOMMENDATIONS, and PACKAGE_EXCLUDE variables. Note the "from being installed" And on my particular machine (armv5) with musl the numpy build is broken (no fpu, not supported for now, working on a fix for that but it require more time) Also I don't think is a good idea to build python-numpy (that is huge) if the user is not using it... on the smem web page it clearly states (https://www.selenic.com/smem) -> the matplotlib library for chart generation (optional, auto-detected) and in the code is doing exactly that def showbar(l, columns, sort): try: import pylab, numpy except ImportError: sys.stderr.write("bar chart requires matplotlib\n") sys.exit(-1) so numpy and matplotlib are needed only if you want to use the parser.add_option("", "--pie", type='str', help="show pie graph") parser.add_option("", "--bar", type='str', help="show bar graph") function Another thing: there's a way to declare that a recipe needs a floating point unit?
