rpm 4 had two dependency generation systems: an external generator
(System 1) and an internal fileattr-based generator (System 2).
OE used System 1 and disabled everything via:
--define '_use_internal_dependency_generator 0'
--define '__find_requires %{nil}'
--define '__find_provides %{nil}'
This meant pkgconfigdeps.sh (part of System 2) never ran in OE builds.
rpm 6 removed System 1 entirely. For v6-format packages it only runs
the fileattr system (System 2), and _use_internal_dependency_generator
is ignored. So __find_requires %{nil} no longer works, and
pkgconfigdeps.sh now runs for the first time in OE builds.
pkgconfigdeps.sh --requires generates both "Requires:/usr/bin/pkg-config"
and "Requires: pkgconfig(foo)" for each .pc dependency. This creates a
sstate compatibility problem: packages built before the pkgconfigdeps.sh
fix (which unsets PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR) have no "Provides:pkgconfig(foo)"
because pkg-config was failing silently. When DNF installs a mix of old
sstate packages (no Provides) and new packages (now generating
Requires),
it fails with:
nothing provides pkgconfig(zlib) needed by elfutils-dev
nothing provides pkgconfig(x11) needed by libdrm-dev
In rpm 6, the correct way to suppress a specific fileattr generator is
via its per-generator macro. Set __pkgconfig_requires %{nil} so new
packages don't generate Requires that old sstate packages can't satisfy.
Provides generation (__pkgconfig_provides) is kept so packages still
advertise their pkgconfig modules.
OE manages build and runtime deps via DEPENDS/RDEPENDS; auto-generated
pkgconfig() Requires from rpmbuild are not needed. This follows the
same pattern as the existing __font_provides %{nil}.
