libpng is in oe-core because it is used by other parts of oe-core (Sato, GTK+, Gthumb, Cups, ...).

Your suggesting that we need to have it in oe-core so people don't need to add the meta-openembedded layer when using meta-kde? I am just trying to get more data before making a decision.Let's put everything in oe-core!Otherwise it would require to maintain a redundant copy of giflib in meta-kde.I don't think you get the concept of layers and keeping non-core stuff out of oe-core.How can it be that libpng is core stuff and libgif is not?
Finally, as stated in other emails meta-kde has other dependencies on meta-oe, it's just the base bits that need giflib.
So, no we will not move libgif into oe-core, please use the Layers as they are intended.
Thanks
Sau!
Alternative suggestions are welcome. A grep shows that not many recipes depend on giflib: - samuel@s-stirtzel-linux:/work/oe-core/setup-scripts/sources$ grep -r 'giflib' * meta-java/recipes-core/openjdk/openjdk-6-common.inc:DEPENDS = "giflib libpng jpeg cups \ meta-java/recipes-core/icedtea/icedtea6-native.inc: freetype-native zlib-native giflib-native jpeg-native \ meta-kde/recipes-kde-base/kdelibs4_git.bb:DEPENDS = "automoc4-native strigi libdbusmenu-qt soprano shared-desktop-ontologies dbus giflib attica jpeg libpng bzip2 libpcre perl-native" meta-openembedded/meta-efl/recipes-efl/efl/evas.inc:DEPENDS = "librsvg eina eet freetype jpeg libpng virtual/libx11 libxext libxrender fontconfig libfribidi giflib" - Any reason against the move?The whole layering concept _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
