I want to upgrade some packages of poky/meta/recipes-graphics/ like
weston_2.0.0.bb to weston_4.0.0.bb. Also I don't want any changes to be made in
poky/meta layer. What is the best way of doing these kinds of upgradations. I
think bbappend here will create problems as the SRC_URI and other variables use
the PV from recipe name to fulfil some operations.
The other thing I can do is create a weston_4.0.0.bb file in my own custom
layer and work but then I don't know how to disable the older(original)
weston_2.0.0.bb file.
What will be the best method to upgrade packages. One thing to remind you that
the SRC_URI is not a repository , it's a tarball repo. So I directly can't
replace the SRC_URI in .bbappend file.
Any leads regarding this will be appreciated.
You should look at layer priorities:
https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.5/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-BBFILE_PRIORITY
If you can set your layer to take precedence (higher priority) over
poky/meta, your weston_4.0.0.bb will be picked over poky/meta's
