Hi, This is the former RFC that was on the mailing list a couple of months ago. Hopefully, this time the patches will make it in since last time the release was to close to have these changes in.
So, the main improvement this patchset brings is running the icon cache generation on host, at rootfs time, after all packages have been installed. This will cut off a lot from the target's first boot time. Also, postinstalls for gconf and gdk-pixbuf were also changed to run on host at rootfs time. With these changes, just a handful of packages will need to run the postinstalls on target (did the tests with core-image-sato). I prefer to approach the remaining packages one by one. My preliminary tests show no issues but, since there are lots of setups out there, testing is always welcomed. Andreas, I know you have such a setup, could you take these patches for a spin if you find some time? Thanks, Laurentiu The following changes since commit da6c266b1184eed8b1bc851f24a9ee17ab56d562: xserver-xorg: restore packaging for the DRI/DRI2/DBE extensions (2012-12-03 16:38:35 +0000) are available in the git repository at: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky-contrib lpalcu/postinst http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=lpalcu/postinst Laurentiu Palcu (5): image.bbclass: run postinst scripts once, at rootfs time rootfs generation: export two new variables to postinst scriptlets gtk-icon-cache: run the icon generation at rootfs time gdk-pixbuf: generate the pixbuf loader's cache ar rootfs time gconf.bbclass: run postinstalls at rootfs time meta/classes/gconf.bbclass | 11 +++++++---- meta/classes/gtk-icon-cache.bbclass | 18 ++++++++++++++---- meta/classes/image.bbclass | 20 +++++++++++++++++--- meta/classes/package_rpm.bbclass | 2 ++ meta/classes/rootfs_deb.bbclass | 2 ++ meta/classes/rootfs_ipk.bbclass | 2 ++ meta/recipes-gnome/gdk-pixbuf/gdk-pixbuf_2.24.1.bb | 17 +++++++++++++++-- 7 files changed, 59 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) -- 1.7.9.5 _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
