Well I am a little bit hesitating as I am by no means an expert on the
dbus recipe.
The other question that immediately popped up is:
If the code is wrong and no-one noticed, is it actually needed?
The code is:
do_install_virtclass-native_prepend() {
install -d ${D}${datadir}/dbus
install -m 0644 dbus-bus-introspect.xml ${D}${datadir}/dbus
}
Actually if the standard do_install needs to be changed, it generally
raises some alarms with me.
Why would we need to install something that the package normally does
not install?
(of course this could be a bug in the package, but then I would prefer
a patch that we also try to push upstream).
Frans.
