[OE-core] [meta-oe][PATCH] gnupg: added a coreutils runtime dependancy to gnupg recipe

[Peter Kjellerstedt]

Not quite. What Khem was aiming for was to modify the packaging of coreutils so that individual binaries end up in their own packages. Currently this is not done for any of the coreutil binaries, but if you look at, e.g., util-linux, you will see this setup for quite a number of its utils.

However, a simpler solution would probably be to just enable comm in busybox…

Ok, this is a nice idea what i think is i may take only comm.c and its depends then compiling it and try to produce package. is this idea good  ?

Mr.Chen Qi, what do you think about making a specific package for 'comm' which is a part of coreutils ?

can we make the packaging more granular where comm is packages into a
package of its
own e.g. coreutils-comm and then create specific rdep on coreutils-comm
