Multilib allows you to get the best of both 32-bit and 64-bit libraries" I can't add 64bit packages to 32bit system via: 1) config a project and add below multilib configs to local.conf: MACHINE = "qemux86-64" require conf/multilib.conf MULTILIBS ?= "multilib:lib32" DEFAULTTUNE_virtclass-multilib-lib32 ?= "x86" 2) run "bitbake lib32-core-image-minimal" 3) add IMAGE_INSTALL_append = "valgrind" to local.conf and rerun "bitbake lib32-core-image-minimal" 32bit valgrind will be installed but not 64bit. Any packages that appended to IMAGE_INSTALL will be extended as lib32-$pkgname in this case, so we can't install any 64bit packages to 32bit system. 50352 1 mark.hatle 2015-04-16 15:08:44 +0000 This worked in the YP 1.5. So something changed afterwards that prevented it from working. (Likely the multilib remapping fixed a bug that is now causing this issue. 50484 2 liezhi.yang 2015-04-23 10:22:07 +0000 Use lib64-bash: require conf/multilib.conf MULTILIBS ?= "multilib:lib32 multilib:lib64" DEFAULTTUNE_virtclass-multilib-lib32 ?= "x86" DEFAULTTUNE_virtclass-multilib-lib64 ?= "x86-64" IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " lib64-bash" Then it works. 53529 3 bogdanx.a.voiculescu 2015-08-28 12:19:02 +0000 not a bug 54127 4 liezhi.yang 2015-09-16 02:05:32 +0000 I've sent patches to oe-core, now we can use: IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " bash" 54724 5 liezhi.yang 2015-09-28 14:03:26 +0000 Merged into master: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=eb7b1a58ceaab7fde4dc954eb4df4247d6c7c6d8 55137 6 liezhi.yang 2015-10-10 02:34:51 +0000 (In reply to comment #4) > I've sent patches to oe-core, now we can use: > > IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " bash" Sorry, it still doesn't work, we can't install 64bit packages to 32bit rootfs, this doesn't sounds good, we need another way to make it work, I will convert it into an enhancement of YP 2.1. 64709 7 liezhi.yang 2016-08-01 08:15:39 +0000 The smart maybe replaced by dnf. 82579 8 kai.kang 2018-12-21 09:16:04 +0000 Could reproduce with Yocto 2.6. 88787 9 randy.macleod 2020-12-17 15:52:10 +0000 Kai, ping. 100587 10 randy.macleod 2025-01-09 16:25:11 +0000 Kai, please test.
