* Fix the fakeroot issue
The archiver.bbclass is used for archiving sources, patches, and logs,
it uses the "rpmbuild -bs" from the package_rpm.bbclass to generate the
.src.rpm, but it didn't work (it's not easy to explain it clearly):
Reason:
- It directly used the "fakeroot" command, we don't have such a
command in native tools, so it would use the fakeroot from the host,
and it would fail when there is no fakeroot on the host.
- The "rpmbuild -bs" doesn't need to work under root, but it is in the
function do_package_write_rpm which is running under fakeroot, and
"rpmbuild" needs to know the source file's user/group name, the source
file is the tarball which is created by the postfuncs of do_unpack
or do_patch which doesn't use the fakeroot, so the created file's
owner would be the real user, e.g.: robert, but there is no such a
user under our native tools' fakeroot(pseudo), then the rpmbuild would
fail. It worked when use the host's fakeroot in the past was because
that the host's fakeroot knows the users on the host.
Fix:
- Remove the incorrect "fakeroot".
- Change the source file's owner to root.root under fakeroot will fix the
problem.
* Other fixes:
- The typo: "do_remove_taball -> do_remove_tarball" which will cause the
tarball is not removed.
- Add the _sourcedir defination to the rpmbuild command since the the
SOURCES would be added to the specfile when archiver.bbclass is
inherited, otherwise there would be errors when "rpmbuild -bb", though
the build is OK. It only added the defination to "rpmbuild -bs",
didn't add to "rpmbuild -bb".

Poky
====
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with 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 layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions
of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with
DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Where to Send Patches
=====================
As Poky is an integration repository, patches against the various components
should be sent to their respective upstreams.
bitbake:
bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
meta-yocto:
poky@yoctoproject.org
Most everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If
in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify.
Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git
repository.
openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix
of oe-core and poky-specific files.
