I don't really think we are strict about it today. Currently,
Ubuntu LTS (12.04) does not include point release number in its
lsb release name. Debian does (and I noticed a similar bump patch
was sent for CentOS recently). I suspect that in many cases, a
new Ubuntu point release contains about the same changes that the
Debian point release does.

The issue is that new point releases, at least in the case of
Debian, happens about every two months. These bumps are
integrated to master, backported to older branches, but it still
won't reach people working off releases immediately.

Even if Poky chooses not to adopt this, it would still be a nice
thing to have support for doing this internally for our
layer/distro.

I'm with Olof and Mark on this one. 

We should at least add the code for allowing wildcards in the
SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS. Then everyone creating our own setups/distros can
choose to add wildcards or not.

Whether we should add wildcards in Poky is a separate question. Though,
we should treat e.g. Debian and Ubuntu in the same way.

Cheers,
Anders

FWIW the above reflects my thoughts as well. We'll need to decide whether or 
not Poky adopts it but we should have the mechanism regardless.

[OE-core] [PATCH v2] sanity.bbclass: support wildcards in SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS

2014-03-03 Thread Olof Johansson
With this change, you can use shell like globbing expressions (as
supported by Python's fnmatch) for entries in SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS.
This makes it possible to say that, e.g. all Debian 7 Wheezy releases
are supported with the entry Debian-7.*.

We (and I know other commercial vendors) are already using patches similar to 
this to do exactly the same thing.


I'd hope that a generic mechanism (like this) could be put in place.. and that 
oe-core/Yocto Project would choose -not- to use it for their distributions.  (To 
avoid the exact problems you mention...)


The commercial folks like me can then use it, as we have to deal with the 
problems anyway.

IMO with such globs you are covering untested versions too that I see
as a problem.
