I have an image which needs to include the libcups2 package from
the cups recipe. If I try adding this to my image recipe
CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL_append = " libcups2"
I get this error:
ERROR: Required build target 'my-demo-image' has no buildable providers.
Missing or unbuildable dependency chain was: ['my-demo-image',
'libcups2']
However, I can get it to build with this
MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS_append = " libcups2"
What's the difference between these two approaches and why doesn't the first
one work at all?
Does the latter actually work? Recommends won't fail if the package doesn't exist, or is getting pulled in via another
route.
I've a feeling that you actually want the pre-renaming name here so try
cups-lib.
Thanks, I'm rebuilding the image (after a Poky/master pull) and will let you
know.
BTW, that would be awfully confusing to require cups-lib when building but my
package
manager (opkg) only knows about the [renamed] package libcups2.
