We have a problem with a package that needs to install a kernel module and an
initscript.
The recipe contains
inherit module update-rc.d
The generated postinst script is
#!/bin/sh
if [ -n "$D" ]; then
exit 1
else
depmod -a 2.6.24.7
update-modules || true
fi
if test "x$D" != "x"; then
OPT="-r $D"
else
OPT="-s"
fi
update-rc.d $OPT somescript start 90 S . stop 10 0 1 6 .
The 'exit 1' leads to an error if $D contains a nonzero length string (what is
the case in the OE image creation step at the build host) and suppresses the
execution of the second (update-rc.d) part.
Because of this error the postinst is run a second time when the target device
boots the first time ("opkg-cl configure" from /etc/rcS.d/S40configure).
The problem is that the update-rc.d execution (and therefor the creation of the
new symlink into rcS.d) is done from within rcS itself. So the
rcS.d/S90somescript will *not* be executed at this boot. :(
We see two possible solutions.
A) Don't use "inherit module update-rc.d" but write the pkg_postint ourselfs.
B) Create two packages (one for the module, one for the initscript) with a
runtime dependency.
I don't like both of them. Any other ideas? Is it possible to force the order
of postinst fragments (update-rc.d code before module code)?
Regards,
Steffen
