Hello, After first attempt to understand how to manage the whole YOCTO build, I did understand that lot of reading should be done on my behalf, in order to catch up with the whole bitbake architecture, but not only... A bit of history is also required.
Now, since I am now managing the huge poky (Morty 2.2) tree, in order to assemble Qt framework on the top of Xorg (for the starters I would like to see how all of this comes/behaves together), I have managed to build LXDE (using Xorg as underlying architecture) load for iMX6, and ported it to the appropriate HW platform. While doing that I have encountered several problems but was able to solve these bugs with the suggestions I got from the caring people from this list (to try to tweak the recipes). Well... :-) Now, I am facing a bigger problem, since in the initial tree load I did not put (excluded) any package manager (both smartpm and opkg, trying to get rid of rpm 5.x dependencies, naively). The one I aim for is actually one which I know the best, and this is DNF. It came into Pyro (2.3.1). After I reprogrammed eMMC, and checked LXDE with Morty features for designated iMX6 HW , I decided to add DNF into the tree, and replace rpm 5.x (in meta/recipes-devtools) with rpm 4.x (since DNF requires rpm 4.x support, as I read from the documentation). Unfortunately, this did not work for me (lot of errors trying to recompile, since rpm 5.x is missing). For Morty I sense that I need to have both rpm packages (since lot of another packages depend (???) from rpm 5.x). I understood that these were changed to depend from rpm 4.x in Pyro Poky 2.3.1 (if I am not mistaken)?! How can I achieve this for Morty? I know that I need to place DNF recipes into recipes-devtools/. Where should I place rpm 4.x, so it'll have only DNF to be dependent from it? Any quick hints (material, emails, threads to read)? Thank you, Zoran
