for my qemuppc target, i wanted to add perl bindings to the target
"rpm" command, so i checked the "rpm_5.4.16.bb" recipe file to find:
# Perl modules are not built, but they could be enabled fairly easily
# the perl module creation and installation would need to be patched.
# (currently has host perl contamination issues)
WITH_PERL = "--with-perl --without-perlembed --without-perl-urpm"
WITHOUT_PERL = "--without-perl --without-perl-urpm"
PACKAGECONFIG[perl] = "${WITH_PERL},${WITHOUT_PERL},perl,"
um ... ok, no idea what the issue is here but what the heck, let's
just try it and see what happens, so added:
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-rpm = " perl"
to "local.conf", ran "bitbake rpm" and eventually got:
| Making all in perl
| make[2]: Entering directory
'/home/rpjday/oe/builds/msm_qemuppc/tmp/work/ppc7400-poky-linux/rpm/5.4.16-r0/build/perl'
| /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL CC="powerpc-poky-linux-gcc -m32
-mhard-float -mcpu=7400 -mno-spe
--sysroot=/home/rpjday/oe/builds/msm_qemuppc/tmp/sysroots/qemuppc"
MAKEFILE=Makefile.perl
| Bareword found where operator expected at Makefile.PL line 71, near
"--sysroot"
| (Missing operator before sysroot?)
| Can't modify constant item in postdecrement (--) at Makefile.PL line
71, near "spe --"
| syntax error at Makefile.PL line 71, near "--sysroot"
... snip ...
????. so i open build/perl/Makefile.PL and, sure enough, down at line
71:
WriteMakefile(
'NAME' => 'RPM',
'OBJECT' => join(' ', @objects),
'VERSION' => '5.4.16',
'MAKEFILE'=> 'Makefile.perl',
'CC' => powerpc-poky-linux-gcc -m32 -mhard-float -mcpu=7400
-mno-spe
--sysroot=/home/rpjday/oe/builds/msm_qemuppc/tmp/sysroots/qemuppc,
... snip ...
doesn't that 'CC' line also need quotes around the value being
assigned? that seems to be a fairly blatant error, no? or am i
misreading something?
