Subject: [PATCH] recipes-extended/xen/xen.inc: Add RDEPENDS_${PN}-pygrub
Maybe: "xen: fix pygrub runtime by adding xen-python to xen-pygrub
RDEPENDS" as the shortlog ?
The patch fixes a problem with importing the package xen.lowlevel.xc.
RDEPENDS add the xen-python tool, which contains the package.
Can we expand on this message a bit ?
I assume that something from xen.lowlevel.xc is pulling in pygrub, and
that in turn requires xen-python? What is the actual on-target or boot
issue this then triggers ?
I'm not currently able to do Xen runtime tests (and hence can't see
this for myself), so I'm trying to understand the issue just from the
commit message (and failing at the moment).
One issue that Norbert's patch fixes is: when xen-pygrub is added to
an image, it doesn't pull in the xen-python package that it needs
which contains the support
library xen.lowlevel.xc .
That issue happened to me, while I was building an ipfire vm guest.
The image is splited into three parts and therefore needs a pygrub to
work as a vm.
Pygrub imports the xen.lowlevel.xc, which is included in the xen-python
package.
Therefore I'm adding a xen-python in the patch.
Norbert
I've build-tested a similar patch in a related environment and I think
the patch should also have this too:
+RDEPENDS_${PN}-python = " \
+ python \
+ "

Cheers,
