In oe-core, function ldconfig_postinst_fragment use exist of
/sbin/ldconfig to decide if ldconfig is runned to generate the cache,
and function _run_ldconfig will run ldconfig to generate cache during
generate rootfs. ldconfig.service is actually not used since we have
generate ld.so.cache during do_rootfs, refer[1][2][3]. ldconfig
dependency is necessary when ldconfig not in DISTRO_FEATURES.
The reverted commit causes regression when ldconfig not in
DISTRO_FEATURES, before, without ldconfig in DISTRO_FEATURES,
ctypes.util.find_library(name) can find the lib if it is installed, now,
since ldconfig is not installed, ctypes.util.find_library(name) cannot
find the lib even if it is installed.
Here is one usecase(gtk+3 lib is installed, ctypes.util.find_library
used to find the lib):
import wx.lib.wxcairo as wxcairo
File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/wx/lib/wxcairo/{}init{}.py", line 59, in <module>
from .wx_cairocffi import _ContextFromDC, _FontFaceFromFont
File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/wx/lib/wxcairo/wx_cairocffi.py", line 189, in <module>
gdkLib = _findGDKLib()
File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/wx/lib/wxcairo/wx_cairocffi.py", line 181, in _findGDKLib
return _findHelper([libname], 'gdk',
"Unable to find the GDK shared library")
File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/wx/lib/wxcairo/wx_cairocffi.py", line 170, in _findHelper
raise RuntimeError(msg)
RuntimeError: Unable to find the GDK shared library

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/
OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.
Contribution Guidelines
Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.
Where to Send Patches
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:
OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
- Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
BitBake (files in bitbake/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
- Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
Documentation (files in documentation/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
- Mailing list: docs@lists.yoctoproject.org
meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto
- Mailing list: poky@lists.yoctoproject.org
If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
