Re: libnss-resolve not automatically installed

To install the missing library libnss-resolve.so.2, I've added
  IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " libnss-resolve"
to my image recipe, but I wonder, if this is the right place or necessary
at all.

My assumption was that having nss-resolve in PACKAGECONFIG will
also install the related library, which is obviously not the case.
Packageconfigs are about what you would like to build it’s still another step what you would like to bundle in your image which is what IMAGE_INSTALL does. At times this is already done because whatever the packagrconfig is enabling is already part of a output package that’s in your IMAGE_INSTALL dependencies and gets pulled in indirectly but that’s not the case here. Therefore you have to do it in both places


Furthermore, I had to write an append-file for base-files, such that
/etc/nsswitch.conf contains the following line
  hosts: resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] files dns myhostname
Ok, there's nothing to worry about.
Adding libnss-resolve to IMAGE_INSTALL and overwriting nsswitch.conf in
the append-file ist he correct procedure here.

Thanks for clarification.

Carsten
