Gatesgarth branch

Open ricardosalveti opened this issue 4 years ago • 7 comments

I'm currently using meta-updater master (not latest due https://github.com/advancedtelematic/meta-updater/pull/791) just fine with latest OE gatesgarth, but it would be good to have a branch dedicated for it, as OE master moves forward with the next release.

After we land 791 (and possibly additional fixes related to it), we should be good to create a gatesgarth branch that would be initially in sync with master.

Agreed, now master also isn't compatible with latest oe-core/master, because after: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=c56f3c9febc1732aa1302524c6c4da36f16bd1f7 the do_image_tar is failing, because of: classes/image_types_ostree.bbclass:IMAGE_CMD_TAR = "tar --xattrs --xattrs-include=*"

| tar: --xattrs can be used only on POSIX archives

Why was gnu chosen over posix? Oh well, whatever.

I'm not opposed to creating a gatesgarth branch, but we aren't using gatesgarth ourselves at this time, so we can't make guarantees about reliability at this time. I'd say until there is a breaking change made in master, it shouldn't really make a difference. We normally backport everything we can anyway.

@pattivacek I've asked RP in https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/147690

based on the answer I might fix it by submitting: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/commit/?h=jansa/master&id=dafbf313bae7649ebad5098d6cad3a6218d3b5fa

The tar format was changed from gnu to posix in master yesterday: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=3ecea58f2a3382d9f4b410d6ad7089111334cb6f

Looks good, thank you!

There is another change for latest oe-core, but unfortunately not backwards compatible with gatesgarth (unless the LICENSE is changed as suggested), see: https://github.com/advancedtelematic/meta-updater/pull/801
