Re: [oe-core][PATCHv2] glib: update 2.74.6 -> 2.76.0

[Alexander Kanavin <alex.kanavin@gmail.com>]

I suppose we do want to align this between systemd and initscripts
based images, so if you can work on the needed adjustments, would be
much appreciated. I was hoping setting VOLATILE_TMP_DIR correctly
would be enough.

True :D But thats what always happens to me if I dont know enough and can't find a way to reproduce. Thanks to your hint on core-image-ptest-glib-2.0 I was able to reproduce the issue. Running the test from /var/volatile/tmp didn't solve the issue. But compared to core-image-ptest-glib-2.0 where /tmp links to /var/tmp the tmpdir is handled by systemd tmp.mount in my image and thus is not a symbolic link. According to systemd ducumentation /var/tmp and /tmp are not the same and are handled differently https://systemd.io/TEMPORARY_DIRECTORIES/ Still I have no idea how this should be fixed or if the failed test could maybe ignored but I was able to pass the tests in core-image-ptest-glib-2.0 by removing the /tmp symlink and adding this line to fstab: tmpfs /tmp tmpfs defaults 0 0 After a reboot the tests completed successful
