These are recipes where the upstream has moved to GPLv3 and these old
versions are the last ones under the GPLv2 license.
There are several reasons for making this move. There is a different
quality of service with these recipes in that they don't get security
fixes and upstream no longer care about them, in fact they're actively
hostile against people using old versions. The recipes tend to need a
different kind of maintenance to work with changes in the wider ecosystem
and there needs to be isolation between changes made in the v3 versions
and those in the v2 versions.
There are probably better ways to handle a "non-GPLv3" system but right
now having these in OE-Core makes them look like a first class citizen
when I believe they have potential for a variety of undesireable issues.
Moving them into a separate layer makes their different needs clearer, it
also makes it clear how many of these there are. Some are probably not
needed (e.g. mc), I also wonder whether some are useful (e.g. gmp)
since most things that use them are GPLv3 only already. Someone could
now more clearly see how to streamline the list of recipes here.
I'm proposing we mmove to this separate layer for 2.3 with its future
maintinership and testing to be determined in 2.4 and beyond.

Fixed:
WARNING: QA Issue: patch: configure was passed unrecognised options: --disable-xattr [unknown-configure-option]
The patch 2.5.9 doesn't support --disable-xattr, there are already
PACKAGECONFIG and PACKAGECONFIG[attr] in patch_2.7.1.bb, so remove them from
patch.inc to fix the problem.

The base_contains is kept as a compatibility method and we ought to
not use it in OE-Core so we can remove it from base metadata in

Remove all PR = "r0" from all .bb files in oe-core. This was done
with the command sed -e '/^PR.*=.*r0\"/d' recipes*/*/*.bb -i
We've switching to the PR server, PR bumps are no longer needed and
this saves people either accidentally bumping them or forgetting to
remove the lines (r0 is the default anyway).

global-reject-file.diff was patch ported from Debian that Debian
itself has dropped as upstream now has equivalent functionality.
To update users of this functionality, replace
"--global-reject-file=file" with simple "--reject-file=file" which
no longer overwrites reject hunks from different files.

As discussed on the mailing list, this variable isn't useful and if wanted
would be better implemented by distros using pn-X overrides.
This patch executes:
find . -regex ".*\.\(bb\|inc\)$" | xargs sed -i '/^PRIORITY = ".*"$/d'
against the tree removing the referenced. Thanks to Phil Blundell for
the command.

This commit patch recipe based on latest upstream code. This is GPLv3
code based. Hence the earlier patch-2.5.9 recipe is left intact for
GPLv2 needs.
Patches from 2.5.9 patch recipe are rebased to this new recipe except
these exceptions:
unified-reject-files.diff: dropped
This patch implements this new parameter:
" --unified-reject-files Create unified reject files."
And upstream has implemented very similar parameter like this:
" --reject-format=FORMAT Create 'context' or 'unified' rejects."
Hence this patch is dropped for the 2.6.1 recipe.
global-reject-file.diff: rebased
This patch is rebased to the newer upstream codebase.
install.patch: dropped
Newer upstream code now includes code form this patch.
debian.patch: dropped
This huge (10k lines) patch was specific for 2.5.9 version of GPLv2 patch.

Earlier the recipe was using 2.5.4 tar ball and a patch for upgrading to
2.5.9. Replaces these with pointer to 2.5.9 tarball.
Also noted that both 2.5.4 & 2.5.9 are GPLv2 sources.

Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things
and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several
logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more
information about the classifications used.
The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes"
as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to
people and has many different meanings.
Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass
at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as
they're no longer actively used or maintained.
