2010-06-03utility-tasks.bbclass: automatic upstream version checkKevin Tian1
Automatic upstream version check can be triggered by "bitbake xxx -c checkpkg". The rationale behind is to find a automatic way for version comparison between current in-use one and upstream progress. The tricky thing is how to find out useful version string from mass diverse information. Fortunately now it mostly work for wget based protocol, except some sites (e.g. sourceforge) not providing a directory service. Repo (git/svn/cvs) based protocols are handled in a very simple manner, by always tagging as update required. This will be further improved later. Use 'world' target to retrieve a full version check for all active recipes. Along with version check, other package information is also collected from existing fields in .bb file Signed-off-by Kevin Tian <kevin.tian@intel.com>

2010-06-02do_distro_check: Recipe exists in other distros?Nitin A Kamble1
This adds a new task (distro_check) for each recipe. The task generates the source package list for Fedora OpenSuSE Ubuntu Debian & Mandriva Linux distros. As one recipe or source package can generate multiple target packages the recipe name is compared with the source package name list of LInux distributions. Thread locking is used to avoid multiple threads racing for the package list update. Then the recipe name (PN) is checked if it exists in the package list of distros. And if the DISTRO_PN_ALIAS then it is used to copmare pacakge_name instead of the PN variable. Just for example the DISTRO_PN_ALIAS can be defined in the recipe (.bb) files like this In the file xset_1.0.4.bb: DISTRO_PN_ALIAS = "Fedora=xorg-x11-server-utils;\ Ubuntu=x11-xserver-utils; Debian=x11-xserver-utils;Opensuse=xorg-x11" The final results are stored in the tmp/log/distro_check-${DATETIME}.result file. FYI this command will generate the results for all recipies: bitbake world -f -c distro_check Signed-off-by: Nitin A Kamble <nitin.a.kamble@intel.com>
