PV has to be set at parse time, up front, so bitbake can use it in stamps to help determine when tasks need to be run, as well as including it in WORKDIR and whatnot. If all you want is to change the version in the emitted binary packages, you can dynamically set PKGV, i.e. add a prefunc before do_package which reads the PKGV. Of course, making sure it re-runs the appropriate tasks when that value changes is rather less trivial, since bitbake generates signatures/checksums at parse time. Alternatively, would it be possible to contact the server via the json API at parse time as long as BB_NO_NETWORK isn't set? Of course, unless there's a way to support the BB_NO_NETWORK case, that would be problematic as well. -- Christopher Larson clarson at kergoth dot com Founder - BitBake, OpenEmbedded, OpenZaurus Maintainer - Tslib Senior Software Engineer, Mentor Graphics
