how to update a package on yocto project

how to update a package on yocto project

[Nishanth S]

Hi

board : Intel Galileo Gen 1

I use yocto project for build image/tarball for the board.

How to update a existing package???

I mean, I use openjdk-6 on my board.

But I need to change it to openjdk-7.

I edited local.conf by adding following line.

preferred_version_openjdkXXXX = XXXX

Hi,

Try with something like this added to the build's conf/local.conf:

PREFERRED_VERSION_openjdk-7-jre = "25b30-2.3.12"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_openjdk-7-jre = "openjdk-7-jre"

Of course, substitute PREFERRED_VERSION_openjdk-7-jre with your exact version of openjdk-7-jre that you have and want to use.

I tried this but the resulting image.tar had only openjdk-6.

How do I include openjdk-7 with core-image???

There needs to be a recipe to actually provide that - PREFERRED_VERSION only 
selects between available versioned recipes. Is there an openjdk-7 recipe in 
your configuration? If not, you will need to add one.

Hi,
Nishanth, I am assuming you are using the meta-java layer, right?
If so, have you tried my suggestions?
