This information will include items such as configuration that would normally be in places such as local.conf, layers that would be in bblayers.conf and possibly build artifacts that are *important* such as an image file or sdk. This should be written in a consumption agnostic way, i.e. the language definition doesn't care who is consuming it outside of that it is machine consumable. Some examples of consumers would be autobuilder, jenkins, toaster, command line, etc. The idea is that knowing the descriptor specification allows anyone to write a consumer that will perform the necessary steps to create a build. 75462 1 brian.avery 2017-07-30 13:32:08 +0000 Moving to M3 78064 2 joshuagloe 2017-11-08 16:30:39 +0000 Is the buildinfo spec a good model here? https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds/BuildinfoSpecification 85936 3 akuster 2019-12-22 20:51:12 +0000 why? maybe reject this and move on? 98263 4 randy.macleod 2024-02-22 16:17:32 +0000 Alex Kanavin has been doing some work in this area according to Richard. 106312 5 randy.macleod 2026-07-23 15:25:17 +0000 Mostly fixed by the bitbake-setup work. If there are additional improvements required, open a new bug/enhancement.
