Re: AGL distro and redis failure

Hi Stefan !

The package is likely there, but:
redis was skipped: redis - redis: system username redis does not have a 
static ID defined. Add redis to one of these files: 
/home/stefan/agl/jellyfish/meta-agl/meta-agl-profile-core/files/passwd

This means:
- AGL uses the 'static userid' feature of OpenEmbedded/Yocto.  This means any user required by a service needs to be pre-created.

- This happens in our case in 
 /home/stefan/agl/jellyfish/meta-agl/meta-agl-profile-core/files/passwd

- for a quick test, add a redis user there with:
 echo "redis::1008:1008:::" >>  /home/stefan/agl/jellyfish/meta-agl/meta-agl-profile-core/files/passwd
 echo "redis::1008:" >>  /home/stefan/agl/jellyfish/meta-agl/meta-agl-profile-core/files/group
then rebuild.

- To make that more permanent, create a layer and set its priority to >=81 and add these two files in
 meta-mylayer
   files/passwd
   files/group
   conf/layer.conf                 # with layer priority >= 81

Best regards,
Jan-Simon

Hello,

I have a recipe that uses jsonrpc-cpp (1.3.x) and that now pulls in hiredis, which is dependent on redis.
In AGL 9 jsonrepc-cpp (0.7.x) does NOT use hiredis and thus builds there.

As this seems to be dependent on an AGL provided profile, I thought I’d ask here first, before digging deeper, more people may experience this at some point. Please note that the same issue with redis is in both AGL9 as AGL 10, but it is not used in 9 in my case.
