Dear all, Last saturday I created a sanity branch named eFfeM/sanity. Purpose of this branch is to come to higher quality and more up to date recipes. Quite ambitious, I know, but as my late mother used to say "ambition does not hurt". :-)
Obviously this goal is not reached yet :-) However an initial milestone has been passed. I have removed some 3000 packages mostly old ones and several native packages (replacing with BBCLASSEXTEND="native"). The resulting branch (which just pushed) builds. (machine = hawkboard, distro = minimal package = console-image) and the hawkboard boots from it (and passes some basic tests). There are a few issues though. bitbake console-image complains for some packages that the preferred version is not available. This is caused by the minimal distro which tries to pin these, and can be ignored. Maybe at some point in time I create a distro which truly follows the head. And some of the edits were fairly massive, touching a lot of files. In those cases I have not updated PR (sorry about that). (actually in order to distinguish the files build from the sanity branch, I am considering moving to a PR = "s0" etc scenario; opinions on this are appreciated) And finally when booting you'll notice that some things are missing in the rfs (e.g /etc/dev.tar). But as I already said: this is still work in progress! Anyway, attached is the code. If you want to contribute: feel free to improve things. Positive feedback is also very welcome. Please redirect negative comments to /dev/null. I already have more than enough of those :-) Attached is the README.sanity file which explains more about this branch, its purpose and how to contribute. I hope you like it, and in any case: have fun! Frans.
