はじめに

表示器が無いデバイスでは、ライセンス情報は企業のHPに載せたりする。
表示器のあるデバイスでは、ライセンス情報をデバイス内部に持つことが多い。
yoctoでデバイス内(rootfs)にライセンス情報を持たせる方法を説明する。

方法

local.confに以下を記載する

COPY_LIC_MANIFEST = "1"
COPY_LIC_DIRS = "1"
LICENSE_CREATE_PACKAGE = "1"

項目	生成物
COPY_LIC_MANIFEST	usr/share/common-licenses/license.manifest(ライセンス情報の一覧)
COPY_LIC_DIRS	usr/share/common-licenses/${PN}(ライセンステキスト+レシピ情報)等
LICENSE_CREATE_PACKAGE	usr/share/common-licenses/${PN}-lic(ライセンステキスト+レシピ情報), usr/share/licenses/(ライセンステキスト)

例

bitbake準備

takeshi@X250:~/yocto/poky$ source oe-init-build-env 

### Shell environment set up for builds. ###

You can now run 'bitbake <target>'

Common targets are:
    core-image-minimal
    core-image-sato
    meta-toolchain
    meta-ide-support

You can also run generated qemu images with a command like 'runqemu qemux86'

Other commonly useful commands are:
 - 'devtool' and 'recipetool' handle common recipe tasks
 - 'bitbake-layers' handles common layer tasks
 - 'oe-pkgdata-util' handles common target package tasks

local.confでCOPY_LIC_MANIFEST、COPY_LIC_DIRS、LICENSE_CREATE_PACKAGE を有効にしておく

takeshi@X250:~/yocto/poky/build$ cat conf/local.conf | tail -n 3
COPY_LIC_MANIFEST = "1"
COPY_LIC_DIRS = "1"
LICENSE_CREATE_PACKAGE = "1"

bitbakeする

takeshi@X250:~/yocto/poky/build$ bitbake core-image-minimal
