chrony: add provides logic to Makefile #27723
Conversation
|
Will the non-nts variant be installed when the user or another package requires "chrony", or will it be selected randomly between chrony and chrony-nts? I think chrony-nts should be installed only when requested to avoid pulling its large dependencies. Maybe it would be safer to call the new provide "chrony-any" and use that in the luci app? |

I assigned it to myself because it doesn't seem to me that it would be completely right and there's no need to keep reminding about it. I have it in the queue. :-) A little patience, please. I'd say this isn't as urgent as some things, for example fixing Python packages. |

Solution: ban python from openwrt :D |

Gonna ping on this again because it is actually needed... |
|
@BKPepe any idea? |

Fixed. |
This satisfies other packages which might depend on either chrony variant. Should another package dependency request 'chrony', the default will be non-NTS chrony via DEFAULT_VARIANT:=1 (mlichvar comment: to avoid pulling its large dependencies). Signed-off-by: Paul Donald <[email protected]>

I guess this should be okay to go. |

This satisfies other packages which might depend on either chrony variant.
E.g. luci interface where either -nts or non variants are acceptable.
