Hi All,
We are using waf for some of our modules and decided to add a
class to make it easier to write recipes.
Why is there still a staging method in there? Those have been deprecated
for months now.
Thanks for taking the time to reply. To answer your question, the waf
class was cloned from the autotools.bbclass, so the staging stuff came
from there. Is there a better way to handle the staging?
It's a fairly trivial class, but I'm interested to hear if anyone had
any additional thoughts on ways to improve the class?
Koen's point is that for a long time now do_stage has been set as legacy
and 'do_install' should instead set things up such that a package can
then be installed into the sysroots/ directory and reused. Like
autotools.bbclass does today :)
And to be more clear, see is_legacy_staging in staging.bbclass
