I don't have such a database and such a database is imposible to have. Plase have a look at https://www.yoctoproject.org/is-yocto-project-for-you/, why. TL;DR: This helps when s6'ing a raspberrian, not when creating a distribution relying on s6. > Instead of autodetecting your cross-compilation differences, skalibs > wants a provided database that it then passes to its dependencies.
