        But buildhistory-diff:

        packages/corei7-64-poky-linux/coreutils/coreutils: FILELIST:
        added "/usr/bin/hostname"

        So the old coreutils wasn't building hostname at all (we use
        /bin/hostname from busybox).

    Are you asking Chen to package coreutils.hostname and
    use the alternatives mechanism with busybox's hostname as the default?
    (busybox hostname has annoyed me in a past life!)


I'm not sure what I'm asking, just pointing out that the log is wrong as the old coreutils wasn't building a hostname binary.

If someone sets base_bindir and bindir to the same directory then there will be a conflict, so this does need to be sorted somehow.

Hi Ross,

You are right about this. The old coreutils doesn't build out hostname. I cannot recall why I thought it did. Anyway I can see from this mistake that using buildhistory is indeed a big help, and I'll use it in my future work.

I've sent out a fix to resolve the conflict problem about hostname between coreutils and other packages (busybox and net-tools).

Best Regards,
Chen Qi
