Hi everyone, I am upgrading a project from Scarthgap to Styhead and am facing a problem again which I somewhat solved before though not properly. And now I want to fix it for good and hopefully have the solution upstream too.
The problem: I have a Python application which needs bluetooth.h header from BlueZ (https://github.com/bluez/bluez/tree/master/lib) at compile time. This is needed by Python's configure script (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/6293d00e7201f3f28b1f4512e57dc4f03855cabd/configure#L10937) at such that the Python installation includes support for sockets like AF_BLUETOOTH and BTPROTO_RFCOMM. Without this, a line like the following will simply fail: sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_BLUETOOTH, socket.SOCK_STREAM, socket.BTPROTO_RFCOMM) On Scarthgap I could do this by adding bbappend for Python with: DEPENDS += "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'bluetooth', 'bluez5', '', d)}". This however is prone to creating dependency loops. To fix this properly, I need to somehow provide only the contents of this folder: https://github.com/bluez/bluez/tree/master/lib ( https://github.com/bluez/bluez/tree/master/lib ) to Python at build-time while not depending on building BlueZ package and its dependencies. To my knowledge there is no way to use the current BlueZ recipe to do this, though I may be wrong. I am curious how others would solve this problem. Is a new recipe the best way?
