<p><font size="+1">Hi all,</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">When build </font><font size="+1"><font
size="+1">32 bits rootfs with </font>64 bits bsp, if an
allarch/noarch package is installed to lib32 rootfs, it causes<br>
unexpected 64 bits packages which is required by the allarch
package installed to lib32 rootfs.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">Take ca-certificates as example. </font><font
size="+1"><font size="+1">ca-certificates rdepends on openssl,
so if </font></font><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1">ca-certificates is installed to
image,<br>
64 bits package openssl will be installed too no matter
what the rootfs is. But only 32 bits openssl package
should<br>
be installed to 32 bits rootfs.</font></font></font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1">There
are 2 ways to fixed the issue.</font></font></font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1">1
expand allarch/noarch packages with multilib. So if add </font></font></font></font><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1">ca-certificates to image, </font></font>lib32-</font></font></font></font><font
size="+1"><font size="+1">ca-certificates will be<br>
installed to 32bits rootfs. And then also the dependency
lib32-openssl is installed. That is what we expected.<br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font size="+1">2 expand DEPENDS/RDEPENDS of </font></font><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1">allarch/noarch
packages with a prefix 'noarch-' when multilib is enabled.
So</font> then<br>
</font></font></font><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1">ca-certificates requires
'noarch-openssl'. And make both lib32-openssl
and openssl provides </font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1">'noarch-openssl'.<br>
When do_rootfs, there is only one rpm repo
'oe-rootfs-repo' now. We will create repos
with different priorities<br>
according to different
archs/subdirectories. For 32 bits image, make
32 bits rpm repo has higher priority, so </font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1">lib32-openssl<br>
will be installed to 32 bits rootfs rather
than 64bits.</font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1"><font
size="+1"><font size="+1"><font size="+1">I know
these 2 ways are not perfect, but only
possible ways I have in mind to solve the
problem.</font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font></font><font

Thanks a lot.</font></p>
