Hi,
In my case, package A creates groups a1, a2 and a3.
B is actually a family of packages B1, B2 and B3 that each create user
b1, b2, or b3 respectively, but also adds the new user to groups a1, a2
and/or a3.
So in this case, it is necessary that package A first be installed AND
that its post-i
Ah in that case there's been a lot of work since daisy to useradd etc.

Forgot to say, Bitbake's dependency model is loosely based on Debian's
so the Debian Policy is a good read for semantics:

Debian's "Depends" is our "RDEPENDS", what

Presumably the problem here is that you've a maintainer script
(preinst or postinst) in B that needs a binary/library from A, and is
failing because B's postinst is running before A is unpacked? If not,
please clarify, otherwise the problem is that DEPENDS just talks about
the final solution. If
Hi Darcy,
I cannot assure you of that specific case but to my understanding you could
find out with the taskexp:
bitbake -g -u taskexp
There you will have a graphical interface to explore your package dependencies
and which task will be executed before another. Hope that helps.

Hi,
Can someone knowledgeable with the inner workings of the build system
please confirm...
IF package B has RDEPENDS on package A
THEN during do_rootfs task, package A will always be installed into
rootfs first AND the post-inst scripts of package A will always be run
prior to those for package
