However the new rpm 4 does not break things out into as many sub packages as RPM 5 did. My suggestion is either we need to add provides or we need to create the additional sub packages. 71321 1 mark.hatle 2017-03-15 21:43:46 +0000 BTW I'm in the process of determining how much space is saved by breaking the build components out into a sub package, for systems where they are not needed. 71632 2 ross.burton 2017-03-23 13:36:47 +0000 Merged in oe-core 3b5ac72bdf76ac8ff98dc3c882a4edc77c6e2c33. 71995 3 ngompa13 2017-04-02 03:49:44 +0000 I'm surprised you don't break things out as much. Both Fedora and Mageia have significant breakout of aspects of RPM into subpackages[1][2]. Depending on what kind of space or functional optimizations you're looking for, you may want to consider the Mageia approach or the Fedora one. I don't know much about how bitbake handles generating these separate things, but at least you can see the two strategies here.
