I'm not particularly happy about it but right now I can't see a good way to fix this short/medium term. Saul: We'd better check if the rpm rootfs class needs this help Cheers, Richard

RP and discussed this and we're both not happy with it, but no viable other options short/medium term. The idea is to see if we can have opkg run all the preinsts since opkg does dependency resolving nowadays. regards, Koen
One way to possibly address this is to create a distribution image creation policy. (That is how most of the distributions I'm aware of do it.. desktop/server and embedded.) The policy is generally: install passwd/group files install filesystem hierarchy (it's second because it needs uid/gids) install "everything else" Something needs to set down the base set of components so the filesystem is sane before we do the actual package installs and pre/post install scripts for each. We could make this generic by defining "critical" or "base" or whatever name you want packages and setting a specific order for these packages. (The list needs to kept small, there generally are one or two items that need to be done very early.) --Mark On 11/4/11 11:09 AM, Koen Kooi wrote: > > Op 4 nov. 2011, om 16:45 heeft Richard Purdie het volgende geschreven: > >> On Fri, 2011-11-04 at 12:44 +0100, Koen Kooi wrote: >>> Preinst are run alphabetically which breaks when e.g. avahi-daemon needs /etc/passwd present. >>> >>> Signed-off-by: Koen Kooi <koen@dominion.thruhere.net> >>> --- >>> meta/classes/rootfs_ipk.bbclass | 6 ++++++ >>> 1 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) >> >> I've merged this to master.

Preinst are run alphabetically which breaks when e.g. avahi-daemon needs /etc/passwd present. Signed-off-by: Koen Kooi <koen@dominion.thruhere.net> --- meta/classes/rootfs_ipk.bbclass | 6 ++++++ 1 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
