09:47 <rburton> sakoman: just sent kernel cve exclusion updates for kirkstone and mickledore. would be good if they landed before the CVE reports :)

11:09 <Guest8> I have a recipe which installs pre-compiled binaries and works well, am curioous about crreating a -dev variant of that package which would install the header files. How can I do that? at the moment te recipe installs everythinh (libraries, headers...) the purpose is to only install the headers if <name of recipe>-dev is in local.conf

11:11 <Guest8> in other words if local.conf only mentions <recipe> then only install binaries, if <name of recipe>-dev is mentionned as well then install everything

11:15 <rburton> write the recipe exactly like every other recipe. if you install the headers to /usr/include then they'll be packaged into recipename-dev and only installed if you ask

11:16 <Guest8> no need for FILES_${PN}-dev ???

11:16 <Guest8> or other artefacts?

11:16 <rburton> the default FILES:${PN}-dev is ${includedir}

11:17 <rburton> so put the headers there, where they belong, and it will just work

11:17 <Guest8> ah that explains

11:17 <rburton> if you want them somewhere else then set FILES as needed

11:17 <rburton> most recipes dont set FILES or PACKAGES, the defaults are sensible

11:18 <Guest8> can bitbake <recipe name>-dev work?

11:18 <Guest8> and only produces the include files?

11:19 <rburton> no

11:19 <rburton> you bitbake a recipe

11:19 <rburton> that builds all the packages

11:19 <Guest8> of coourse

11:19 <Guest8> thank you

16:20 <yates_work> when running bitbake -f -c do_configure <some-recipe>, i'm getting "WARNING: /mnt/NVMe2/yocto-hp9015e/meta-qt5/recipes-qt/qt5/qtbase_git.bb:do_configure is tainted from a forced run"

16:21 <yates_work> what are the consequences of being tainted?

16:22 <yates_work> also related, if you use -c do_blah, doesn't yocto actually do all the tasks up to and including blah?

16:23 <yates_work> if the answer is "no" then is that the meaning of the "tainted" warning?

16:54 <mischief> yates_work: i think it just invalidates the stamp so that it runs again, and, no, previous tasks wont run if they aren't also invalidated i believe

16:59 <yates_work> mischief: ok thanks

17:02 <yates_work> if i do a DISTRO_FEATURES:append = " blah1" in a recipe, does that change the DISTRO_FEATURES for all other subsequent recipes? or is it only that recipe?

17:05 <mischief> variables set in a recipe only affect that recipe

17:05 <mischief> you can check this with bitbake -e <recipe>

17:25 <yates_work> great info!
