Dear Yocto community,
I know it is not ideal, but I need to install a package in the building host
that is close source. Because of it, I just received the deb package without
the source code. This deb package only needs to run on the building host aka
native, but I am unable to achieve it. This is how the recipe look like:
SUMMARY = "Recipe for installing deb package"
DESCRIPTION = "It installs own deb package"
HOMEPAGE = ""
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
DEPENDS = "dpkg-native ldconfig-native virtual/fakeroot-native"
SRC_URI = "file://close-source-deb-file.amd64.deb;unpack=0"
fakeroot do_install : append () {
touch ${ STAGING_DIR_NATIVE } / var / lib / dpkg / status
${ STAGING_BINDIR_NATIVE } / dpkg -- force architecture -- instdir = ${ D } / \
-- admindir = ${ STAGING_DIR_NATIVE } / var / lib / dpkg / \
- i ${ WORKDIR } / close - source - deb - file. amd64. deb
}
do_install [ depends ] += "virtual/fakeroot-native:do_populate_sysroot"
FILES : ${ PN } += " \
/usr/* \
/etc/* \
"
However, when I tried to run this recipe I got stuck in the extraction part of
the process with the error "Cannot change ownership":

I know this error is typical of tar when the uid and gid of the user and the
owner are not the same but I cannot use the flag "--no-same-owner" as far as I
know using dpkg. I also tried with pseudo and fakeroot, but the result is the
same. I have been looking the code of dpkg but adding the flag to the variable
TAR seems not to be working because it will not find the binary $PATH.
So I do not know what else kind I tried to make it work. Have I something
missed? Could you maybe point me into the right direction?
Thanks for your help.
Happy coding,
JM
