Gavini, Sumanth Aug. 10, 2026, 4:52 a.m. UTC 
* V13:
  - Added "rpm: Fix pkgconfig() Provides missing in cross-built RPMs"
    Unset cross-compilation PKG_CONFIG_* variables in pkgconfigdeps.sh
    so pkgconfig() Provides/Requires are correctly generated during
    rpmbuild.

  - Added "libarchive: Add RPM format reader to support rpm 6"
    PR #3346 from v12 was insufficient alone. Added PR #2846 patch that
    converts RPM into a proper format reader for RPM 6 packages.
    Existing RPM filter kept for API compatibility.
    test_read_format_huge_rpm.c excluded (filter intercepts before
    format reader).

    Tests verified:
    - oe-selftest -r debuginfod.Debuginfod.test_debuginfod_qemu
    - bitbake core-image-ptest-libarchive:do_testimage (libarchive_test PASS)
    - bitbake core-image-sato:do_populate_sdk 
    - bitbake core-image-sato-sdk: do_rootfs 

* V12:
  - The previous libarchive-related changes for 3.8.8 are no longer
    applicable because libarchive has been upgraded to 3.8.9. Updated the
    implementation to work with libarchive 3.8.9 and applied the upstream
    fix for "attach filter to correct bidder".
    Upstream patch: Upstream patch:
    https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pull/3346/
 
 -  Dropped the following changes:
    rpm: lib/oe/package.py: Filter out /usr/bin/pkg-config file dependency
    rpm: Filter /usr/bin/pkg-config from RPM auto-generated Requires
  
    Why drop the old change:
   The filedeprunner() fix runs at OE's external scanning stage
   (do_package), but RPM 6's internal dependency generator runs later,
   inside rpmbuild itself. It re-adds Requires:
   /usr/bin/pkg-config regardless of what OE filtered. The old fix simply
   operates at the wrong layer it's like closing a door that RPM 6 walks
   around.

   Why the new changes:
   It operates at the same layer where the problem originates, inside
   rpmbuild. By setting __pkgconfig_provides and __pkgconfig_requires to
   %{nil}, we tell RPM 6's internal
   scanner to skip pkgconfigdeps.sh entirely. This is the RPM 6
   equivalent of what _use_internal_dependency_generator 0 did in RPM 4
   just scoped to pkgconfig specifically rather than globally.
  
  With these changes, the previously observed test failures have been resolved:
  - bitbake core-image-sato:do_populate_sdk 
  - bitbake core-image-sato-sdk: do_rootfs 
  - bitbake core-image-ptest-glib-2.0 
  - bitbake core-image-ptest-libarchive
  - bitbake core-image-ptest-libarchive:do_testimage

* V11: 
 - Added 0001-pkgconfigdeps.sh-Do-not-emit-usr-bin-pkg-config-as-a.patch
   To fix "bitbake core-image-minimal-dev" Could not invoke dnf. Command...
   pkgconfigdeps.sh unconditionally emits /usr/bin/pkg-config as a hard
   Requires for packages shipping .pc files. In OE/Yocto cross-compilation,
   pkg-config is a host-only build tool not needed on the target rootfs,
   causing failures with -dev packages.

* v10:
  - The ARCHIVE_FILTER_RPM macro was commented out in a previous
    libarchive change, causing do_compile_ptest_base to fail with:
    error: 'ARCHIVE_FILTER_RPM' undeclared
    Restore the macro definition. The ptest now compiles and passes
    successfully.

* V9:
  - Updated SRCREV to the 6.0.2 tag.
  - Incorporated all V8 changes and updated them as needed for 6.0.2.
  - Dropped
    0001-scripts-pkgconfigdeps.sh-Use-pkg-config-from-PATH.patch
    from V8, as it is no longer needed. After filtering out the
    /usr/bin/pkg-config file dependency, "bitbake core-image-sato -c
    populate_sdk" completes successfully without the patch.
  - Fixed the filtering of the /usr/bin/pkg-config file dependency.
    pkg-config is a build-time tool, not a runtime dependency. Filtered
    the /usr/bin/pkg-config dependency automatically detected by
    pkgconfig.attr for packages containing .pc files, preventing
    unnecessary hard runtime dependencies in -dev packages.
  - Removed v8 libarchive-related changes since the latest version
   (3.8.8) already includes the required updates.
  - Fixed the "oe-selftest -r debuginfod.Debuginfod.test_debuginfod_native"
    failure observed after upgrading to 6.0.2.
  - Verified that previously reported Autobuilder issues are no longer observed.
    The following builds/tests were successfully completed:
     "bitbake core-image-minimal"
     "bitbake core-image-full-cmdline"
     "bitbake core-image-sato"
     "bitbake core-image-sato world"
     "bitbake core-image-full-cmdline:do_testimage"
     "bitbake core-image-minimal:do_rootfs"
     "bitbake core-image-sato -c populate_sdk"

* V8:
  - Fix build with systemd (Check patch 7 for detailes)
  - Make rpmbuild can find the pkgconfig (.pc) files in /usr/share/pkgconfig 
    (Check patch 7 for detailes)
  - Backport a PULL from git/libarchive to fix oe-selftest failures.

* V7:
  - Add 0001-scripts-pkgconfigdeps.sh-Use-pkg-config-from-PATH.patch:
    To fix "bitbake core-image-sato -cpopulate_sdk" error on Ubuntu 24.04 when
    pkg-config is installed on host, now the host contamination has been fixed,
    and the patch has been submitted to upstream:
    https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/4127

* V6
  - Fix -cpopulate_sdk error when DISTRO = "poky"

* V5
  - Fix RP's comments: Don't hardcode libc6 into package_rpm.bbclass
  - Use SKIP_LDCONFIG_POSTINST_FRAGMENT:${PN} to fix the loop dependencies
    between /bin/sh and libc.so. 

* V4
  - Fix loop dependencies issues for libc6 and busybox
  - Fix issues for can't find pkg-config files (.pc) on qemux86-64.

* V3
  - Fix Alexender's comments
    a) Suppot rpm 6
    b) Move rpm-setup-autosign to rpm-build
    c) Remove -DLIBELF_FOUND=False

  - Fix build for nativesdk-rpm

  - Drop patch for createrepo-c since it has been upgraded (rev:
    804a238c8a4e86c2bcfb2192d54cb861d5fd32a6)

* V1 & V2
  - Initial version
