update-alternatives: Fix determinism issue

2016-05-17T20:27:58+00:00

getVarFlags returns a dict and there is therefore no sort order. This
means the order of the X_VARDEPS_X variables can change and hence the
task checksums can change. This can lead to rebuilds of any parts of
the system using update-alternatives and their dependees. This is a
particular issue under python v3.

Add in a sort to make the order of the variables deterministic.

update-alternatives: when warning about alt_link==alt_target, say what PN

2016-01-22T23:42:45+00:00

A warning that doesn't say what the PN is doesn't really help.

meta: Add explict getVar param for (non) expansion

2015-06-23T10:56:17+00:00

Rather than just use d.getVar(X), use the more explict d.getVar(X, False)
since at some point in the future, having the default of expansion would
be nice. This is the first step towards that.

This patch was mostly made using the command:

sed -e 's:\(getVar([^,()]*\)\s*):\1, False):g' -i `grep -ril getVar *`

update-alternatives.bbclass: alternatives should be removed in prerm

2015-03-24T10:07:59+00:00

This behaviour matches dpkg's manpage and fixes deinstalling
alternatives for programs needed by the postrm script, e.g. /bin/sh.

update-alternatives: We now use u-a in nativesdk so make sure the dependency is present

2014-01-17T10:32:09+00:00

When update-alternatives was part of opkg which got built in most nativesdk
scenarios, this missing dependency wasn't an issue. We now need nativesdk-opkg-utils
so we need to ensure the dependency is present in nativesdk cases.

This avoids build failures with the recent u-a move to opkg-utils.

update-alternatives: Drop deprecated code, update to show error message

2013-05-21T08:14:38+00:00

This code has been deprecated for a while and confuses the class, lets drop it
and just give the user hard error messages instead of the current warnings/fixups.

classes: Use modern exception raising syntax

2013-05-09T13:04:18+00:00

Modern expection rasing syntax is function call format, convert to this
to keep python 3 happy and model correct coding style in the core.

Ensure that the DEPENDS we're adding is correct in the multilib case by
including MLPREFIX, fixing unnecessary dependencies in those images.
