Hello, thanks a lot the build work now !
I'm very proud: this is the 1st time I can help someone on Yocto! This means a
lot to me ;-)
<blockquote>
But i have another issue, i would like to install the font in /usr/lib/fonts,
this is not the case for the moment (it 's for Qt5.7 use). How i can said to
yocto to install font (.ttf) on this folder please ?
</blockquote>
I also need to use Qt5.7, but since I'm currently on other tasks, you discover
the troubles a couple of hours before me. So let's try to debug this together…
<blockquote>
</blockquote>
1/ File ttf-dejavu_2.37.bb includes (requires) `ttf.inc` that is in the same
folder.
2/ File ttf.inc has the following method:
do_install() {
install -d ${D}${datadir}/fonts/truetype/
find ./ -name '*.tt[cf]' -exec install -m 0644 {}
${D}${datadir}/fonts/truetype/ \;
}
which is in turn appended by dejavu with:
do_install_append () {
install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/fonts/conf.d/
install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/30-dejavu-aliases.conf
${D}${sysconfdir}/fonts/conf.d/
}
3/ The log of the install task of the recipe is
/tmp/work/all-poky-linux/ttf-dejavu/2.37-r7/temp/run.do_install
We have:
export datadir="/usr/share"
export sysconfdir="/etc"
I compared to my Debian system: the files are stored in the same folders. So it
seems this is qt that doesn't search in the "correct" place.
4/ After some grepping in meta-qt5, I have:
classes/qmake5_paths.bbclass
OE_QMAKE_PATH_LIBS = "${libdir}"
classes/qmake5_paths.bbclass
OE_QMAKE_PATH_QT_FONTS = "${OE_QMAKE_PATH_LIBS}/fonts"
5/ But I don't know what is the best solution now. We could change the
OE_QMAKE_PATH_QT_FONTS variable. But this implies to recompile many pieces, I
believe.
So I opt for changing the do_install function. The quick & dirty solution is to
create a ttf-dejavu_2.37.bbappend file that totally redefine the do_install
method.
do_install() {
install -d ${D}${datadir}/fonts/truetype/
find ./ -name '*.tt[cf]' -exec install -m 0644 {} ${D}${ libdir
}/fonts/truetype/ \;
install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/fonts/conf.d/
install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/30-dejavu-aliases.conf
${D}${sysconfdir}/fonts/conf.d/
}
I can't test it right now, but I hope this helps you.
Michel
