Hi All, We have seen some problems like this: $ bitbake libcap ld: warning: libaudit.so.1, needed by .../lib64/libpam.so, not found .../lib64/libpam.so: undefined reference to `audit_open' .../lib64/libpam.so: undefined reference to `audit_close' ...... The libaudit has been available and libpam build with it, after we run another build with sstate-cache and w/o libaudit, the error occurs. The solution in these cases is to use PACKAGECONFIG to lay out dependencies on optional packages and make them explicit. We need to run an audit and catch all of these issues. A probable ways maybe: 1) Run world build to generate the sysroots as much as possible; 2) Run 'configure --help' on each package to spot all of the optional dependencies, and convert them into PACKAGECONFIG specs/or any other prompts.
We should try to automate or codify this step so that the output is a list of oe-core package names.
3) Run #1, #2 as an audit script periodically. Or could we run this check as part of a QA build step?
Do you mean: scripts/test-dependencies.sh // Randy
Thanks Wenzong
