[oe] [PATCH] libcap, libcap2: use automatic packaging to fix QA errors

[Paul Menzel]

Date: Mon, 10 Jan 2011 12:09:26 +0100

Since commit 6883f6 [1] packages have been populated manually.

	FILES_${PN} = "${libdir}"
	FILES_${PN}-dev = "${includedir}"

This gives the following QA errors for `libcap` and `libcap2` (which is based on `libcap` [2]) [3].

• `libcap`:

	ERROR: QA Issue with libcap: non -dev package contains symlink .so: libcap path '/work/armv7a-oe-linux-uclibceabi/libcap-1.10-r2/packages-split/libcap/usr/lib/libcap.so'
	ERROR: QA Issue with libcap: non -dev package contains symlink .so: libcap path '/work/armv7a-oe-linux-uclibceabi/libcap-1.10-r2/packages-split/libcap/usr/lib/libcap.so'

• `libcap2`:

	ERROR: QA Issue with libcap2: non -dev package contains symlink .so: libcap2 path '/work/armv7a-oe-linux-uclibceabi/libcap2-2.16-r1/packages-split/libcap2/usr/lib/libcap.so'
	ERROR: QA Issue with libcap2: non -dev package contains symlink .so: libcap2 path '/work/armv7a-oe-linux-uclibceabi/libcap2-2.16-r1/packages-split/libcap2/usr/lib/libcap.so'

Using automatic packages the symlink `libcap.so -> libcap.so.1.10` is put into `libcap{,2}-dev`.

Note: The symlink `libcap.so.1 -> libcap.so.1.10` is still put into `libcap1_1.10-r2_armv7a.ipk` but does not raise a QA error.

You are right, automatic packaging puts the symlink into `libcap-dev`,
but as noted `libcap.so.1` is still in the “main” package.

I am putting Rolf into CC to get the reasoning for the previous
behavior.
