'nostamp' is normally used for some standalone tasks like clean, checkuri, etc.
It doesn't make sense to mark do_populate_lic as 'nostamp', which is depended
by do_package. No stamp file in the build dependency chain implicates that
do_package needs to be reinvoked and thus further do_package_write* stuff.
This together with another sstate bug fully confused recent master, that people
keep observing unnecessary do_package rebuilt with or without change. Below is
a short explanation for two behaviors we observed:
a) a fresh build, and then bitbake same target w/o any change. User will observe
one unnecessary rebuild and then later rebuild is fine:
[1st rebuild]
* do_populate_lic has no stamp, and thus do_package is thought not current
* do_package_setscene is then invoked with stamp file created
* then later do_package_write*** also are rebuilt
[2nd and later rebuild]
* do_populate_lic has no stamp, and thus do_package is thought not current
* do_package_setscene has stamp file and thus no need to re-execute setscene
* thus no further rebuild required
b) a fresh build, and then adjust order of PACKAGE_CLASSES. There's one bug
regarding to PACKAGE_CLASSES and do_package_setscene, that only switch the
order in PACKAGE_CLASSES generates different checksum. In this case user may
observe up to 3 rebuilds when switching package_rpm/package_ipk back and forth.

The class strips out operators from the LICENSE field and to reduce it to a
list of license, | was missing but is quite frequently used so add it to the
list of replaced characters.

This is an intial commit for the license reporting system. A few notes:
The LICENSE fields needs to be standardized throughout poky. As it
stands, we throw a warning if the license file is not found (either
because it does not exist or because LICENSE_FILE_CHKSUM is munged)
in the generic license directory. This should eventually become an
error.
I've seen a few places where Apache-v2.0 is written differently and
I'm sure this will throw the above warning. This does not put the
license data on the rootfs. Also, I provide both the actual license
text and a link to the best guess of the generic_license. That guessing
is not very robust and I'm loath to get into a bunch of pattern matching
rather than standardize LICENSE.
This adds one new param to poky.conf and one new to license.bbclass:
LICENSE_DIR: the base directory we copy all the license results to (set
in license.bbclass)
COMMON_LICENSE_DIR: this is the directory that holds all the common
generic license files. currently meta/files/common-licenses (set in
poky.conf)
TODO:
- We should verify the common-licenses. I stripped these from my Ubuntu
10.10 system.
- We should allow the capability of licenses on the rootfs, although the
resulting image created would be a lot larger.
- More common-licenses. I don't include bzip, zlib, ICS.... I should,
but that means tracking down a lot of licenses.
- General cleanup of licensing and standardization of names. We should
standardize on a naming convention. What's in licenses.conf should
match up with what is in the recipes which should match with what is
in common-licenses. Outside the scope of this though. See:
