Hi,

I tried

FILES_${PN} =+ "${libdir}/libuci.so"

but under package-split, the .so file is still only listed in the -dev package.

Is it possible that the lib*.so files are always forcibly removed from FILES_${PN}?

what is name of your recipe ?

uci.bb




I was able to hack the CMakeList.txt file as follows.  If I set SOVERSION on the shared library the expected libuci.so.1 file appears with the libuci.so link which solves the problem.  I'm a little concerned I might have problems with other packages that I haven't ported yet that depend on UCI, but I will see.


thats intact correct way to fix it in view of OE's eyes.

may be you should file an enhancement bug for it in Yocto bugzilla

I probably should have mentioned this earlier, but I'm using the 1.3 version of Yocto that's embedded in TI's Arago SDK.  Can I safely pull poky on top of that and see if it fixes the problem or might I have conflicts between Arago BSP layers and the 1.4 Poky recipes?

Doubt that

Doubting that I can use Poky, or doubting that Poky will conflict with TI's arago?  Or doubting that using 1.3 has any relevance to this issue?



Thanks,
Brad

So, I added this:


FILES_${PN} +="/usr/lib/*"

Try something like

FILES_${PN} =+ "${libdir}/libuci.so"



However that doesn't remove the message.  Did I do it right?



usually .so are symlinks which then go into -dev packages via the default package sieve engine
but I am thinking if we find out that file is not a symlink but a normal shared object then probably
we could stop shoving it into -dev package and instead put it into ${PN}

may be you should file an enhancement bug for it in Yocto bugzilla
