[oe] [PATCH] Epoch support for bitbake (and OE)

[pHilipp Zabel]

Hi,

I have attached three patches needed to test epoch support with OE.

bb-epoch-extend-pf.patch
changes the PF variable (currently "${PN}-${PV}-${PR}") to
"${PN}-${PE}_${PV}-${PR}" if an epoch > 0 is set. This variable
is used by STAMPS, WORKDIR and FILESDIR for example.

bb-epoch-package-ipk.patch
adds support to set the epoch in the Version field of ipk packages.
package_deb.bbclass can be changed similarly.
How does this work for rpm packages, and what to do
with package_tar.bbclass (just ignore PE)?

bb-epoch-libx11-example.patch
Ok, maybe this one is a bit superfluous. This is libx11_1.0.1 with
PE="1" set and can be used to test drive above patches.

regards
Philipp
