Hello folks, is there a possibility to force a recipe to provide a specific file?
My problem is that my own recipe is providing a file which is already provided by another recipe. I don't want to change that other recipe and the rootfs should include both package but only the specified file from my package. The following message is produced by bitbake: WARNING: The recipe ghostscript is trying to install files into a shared area when those files already exist. Those files and their manifest location are: /opt/yocto/poky/build_2.2/tmp/sysroots/board/usr/lib/cups/filter/gstopxl Matched in manifest-board-cups-filters.populate_sysroot /opt/yocto/poky/build_2.2/tmp/sysroots/board/usr/lib/cups/filter/gstoraster Matched in manifest-board-cups-filters.populate_sysroot Please verify which package should provide the above files. The only solution which came to my mind is to remove the file from the original recipe using a bbappend, but I think this isn't a really "clean" way. Does anybody have another/better idea how to solve this "problem"? Thanks! regards, richard P.S.: I hope I'm on the correct mailing list, if not please drop me a line! -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
