At the very least we should rework the core of the system so that support for v4 can be added in easily by a layer, if not becoming a configuration option. There are no plans to change the default, just make v4 more accessilble for those who want/need it. 45683 1 ross.burton 2014-09-18 15:23:38 +0000 oe-core as of e7a78bdc9715ed82541d5b8308d5cc4656ce58dd has the ability to work with rpmv4. We're missing a recipe for rpm4 but that's a separate issue. 45965 2 stanciux.mihail 2014-09-30 13:58:19 +0000 Tried to install rpmv4 from source on qemux86 core-image-sato-sdk, but apparently the nss version we are using is too old to compile the rpmv4 sources. Steps taken so far: 1. built core-image-sato-sdk qemux86 2. built nss and nsrp packages 3. installed nss and nsrp packages on qemu machine(including dev versions) 4. obtained source files for rpmv4 from http://www.rpm.org/wiki/Releases/4.11.2 5. ./configure command fails with "NSS version not present or too old" message I'd appreciate any suggestions on how I might go forward from here, or a recipe file for rpmv4 to test directly. Thanks, Mihail 45993 3 stanciux.mihail 2014-10-01 10:27:34 +0000 Seems there's already a feature request for a recipe. 46031 4 stanciux.mihail 2014-10-02 13:00:36 +0000 Verified on 1.7 M4 RC3: abf9372358e5db70e7d707a5a732c4ec7d0f2efe Removed "TC needed" tag - moved it to bug 6739
