Here is the content of bbappend recipe for base-files recipe:
FILESEXTRAPATHS_append := "${THISDIR}/${PN}"
SRC_URI += "file://fstab-flash \
file://fstab-regular \
"
PACKAGES += " ${PN}-flash ${PN}-regular"
CONFFILES_${PN}-flash = "${CONFFILES_${PN}}"
CONFFILES_${PN}-regular = "${CONFFILES_${PN}}"
pkg_preinst_${PN}-flash = "${pkg_preinst_${PN}}"
pkg_preinst_${PN}-regular = "${pkg_preinst_${PN}}"
RREPLACES_${PN}-flash = "${PN}"
RPROVIDES_${PN}-flash = "${PN}"
RCONFLICTS_${PN}-flash = "${PN}"
RREPLACES_${PN}-regular = "${PN}"
RPROVIDES_${PN}-regular = "${PN}"
RCONFLICTS_${PN}-regular = "${PN}"
python populate_packages_prepend() {
import shutil
packages = ("${PN}-flash", "${PN}-regular")
for package in packages:
# copy ${PN} content to packages
shutil.copytree("${PKGD}", "${PKGDEST}/%s" % package, symlinks=True)
# replace fstab
if package == "${PN}-flash":
shutil.copy("${WORKDIR}/fstab-flash",
"${PKGDEST}/${PN}-flash/etc/fstab")
else:
shutil.copy("${WORKDIR}/fstab-regular",
"${PKGDEST}/${PN}-regular/etc/fstab")
}
This will produce two separate packages that will replace base-files
package.
Moreover, this trick allows You to modify base-files package separately for
flash-OS and regular-OS
in other recipes add packages like this:
base-files-flash or base-files-regular
Thanks,
Oleksandr Poznyak!
