investigate machine specific packages pulled as dependencies in images.

Reported by: GNUtoo Owned by: mrmoku
Priority: minor Milestone:
Component: SHR Image Version: SHR-unstable
Keywords: Cc:

Description

SHR supports multiple machines,
And a lot of packages are only usefull on a particular machine.
Some examples are:
android-rpc is installed on om-gta02, but is only usefull for htcdream

wmiconfig,xf86-video-fbdev(should be in feeds but not in image),serial-forward(the nokia n900 has no serial for the modem or the GPS),s3c64xx-gpio,s3c24xx-gpio,android-rpc are also installed on nokia900

All theses packages eat space(for instance the NAND installations have space constraints that are high)

Denis.

partially resolved by splitting fsogsmd/fsodeviced modules to own package, the rest is pulled by shared tasks like:

./task-fso2-compliance.bb: wmiconfig \

./task-cli-tools.bb: s3c64xx-gpio \
./task-cli-tools.bb: s3c24xx-gpio \
./task-cli-tools.bb: serial-forward \

android-rpc is pulled by tcpdump
./task-cli-tools.bb is part only of full image through task-shr
