Fixed:
error: External dependency generator is incompatible with v6 packages
This one is creating technical debt. I can imagine support for v4
packages will be dropped at some not-too-distant point. We've had this
deprecation warning for a long time, but it looks like the matter is
becoming more pressing now. Can you look into it?
OK, I will look into it.
I checked the history, the external dependency is for rpm per file dependency,
but that function hasn't been used any more since 2012:

package_rpm.bbclass: Optimise per file dependency handling

And back to 2010:

package_rpm: Enable per file dependencies
===========
The per file dependency was for creating the rpm, but Richard disabled that
in 2012, and there were no complains or updates in the past 13 years.
I think we can remove that code safely, then we can move to rpm 6.
I will send a V3 for it if no objections.
- 0001-macros.in-Set-_pkgverify_level-to-digest-as-RCPM-4.2.patch
Fixed:
GPG check FAILED
* Add scdoc-native to DEPENDS to fix do_configure error for both native and
target:
Could not find SCDOC using the following names: scdoc
Is this a hard dependency? Is there a cmake switch to turn it off?
I will check and fix that.
Yes, it's a hard dependency since the man pages in *man/* are scdoc sources.
// Robert
Note, both target and native need scdoc-native.
* Add bash to RDEPENDS:${PN} to fix:
ERROR: rpm-1_6.0.1-r0 do_package_qa: QA Issue: /usr/lib/rpm/rpm-setup-
autosign
contained in package rpm requires /bin/bash, but no providers found in
RDEPENDS:rpm? [file-rdeps]
All things that depend on bash are specifically placed into
${PN}-build, so that the main package will not pull in gplv3 licensed
items. I can imagine this will fail in no-gpl3 tests too.
I will move it into rpm-build.
-EXTRA_OECMAKE:append:class-native = " -DCMAKE_INSTALL_SYSCONFDIR:PATH=/etc -
DCMAKE_INSTALL_LOCALSTATEDIR:PATH=/var"
+EXTRA_OECMAKE:append:class-native = " -DCMAKE_INSTALL_SYSCONFDIR:PATH=/etc -
DCMAKE_INSTALL_LOCALSTATEDIR:PATH=/var -DLIBELF_FOUND=False"
Addition of LIBELF_FOUND=False is not explained. Also I think it can
be easily provided?
Good catch, we don't need this change, it has been fixed via 0001-tools-
elfdeps.cc-Remove-format-module.patch
// Robert
Otherwise, looks good, thanks for working on it!
Alex
