I purpose the next operators <=, <, ===, >, >= and will be next to recipe name, DEPENDS="recipe==1.0.0". 57006 1 richard.purdie 2015-12-03 16:09:02 +0000 We did add support to bitbake to at least accept version information in these fields. We can therefore add it and it will be parsed safely however Bitbake doesn't currently process that information though. 71692 2 ross.burton 2017-03-24 13:53:50 +0000 There already is version support in RDEPENDS, so this is just about DEPENDS. I propose that the first iterate is just a sanity check: if foo-1 and foo-2 are in a layer, bar DEPENDS on foo (>2) but foo-1 is selected then bitbake should error out. 72092 3 matt.hoosier 2017-04-04 21:56:13 +0000 I've been using Poky for quite a while now, but nearly all my work has been at the class and recipe level. If you can suggestions a likely place to insert an implementation of Ross's first suggestion (sanity checking), I can have a go at that. 96796 4 randy.macleod 2023-10-24 14:24:20 +0000 Bulk move from 4.99 or 0.00 to 5.99
