ref-manual: Removed tag from profile-manual cross-ref
In the introduction, the ref-manual references several other YP
manuals. If the manual is build separately, these references resolve
to the appropriate manuals. When the mega-manual is built, the
same references are designed to not become links. In otherwords,
mega-manual.sed processes those links out. This is by design.
I found a #profile-manual tag on one of the links in the introduction.
This resulted in a link in the mega-manual that would go nowhere. I
removed the tag.

bash: explicitly define NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS in CFLAGS
If NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS is defined, all login shells read the
startup files, even if they are not interactive.
This is the behaviour of other major distros like Ubuntu and Fedora.
We also need to set it so that when executing `su -l xxx -c env' command,
/etc/profile is parsed.
0001-su.c-fix-to-exec-command-correctly.patch is removed. Below is the reason.
This patch is introduced to solve the 'su: applet not found' problem when
executing `su -l xxx -c env'. The patch references codes of previous release
of shadow. However, this patch introduces bug#5359. So it's not correct.
Let's first look at the root cause of 'su: applet not found' problem.
This problem appears when /bin/sh is provided by busybox.
When executing `su -l xxx -c env' command, the following function is invoked.
execve("/bin/sh", ["-su", "-c", "env"], [/* 6 vars */])
Note that the argv[0] provided to new executable file (/bin/sh) is "-su".
As /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/busybox. It's /bin/busybox that is executed.
In busybox's appletlib.c, it would examine argv[0], try to find an applet
that has the same name, and then try to execute the main function of the
applet. This logic results in `su' applet from busybox to be executed.
However, we default to set 'BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID' to "1", so 'su' is not found.
Further more, even if we set 'BUSYBOX_SPLIT_SUID' to "0", so that 'su' applet
is found. The whole behaviour is still not correct. Because 'su' from shadow
takes higher priority than that from busybox, so 'su' from busybox should never
be executed on such system unless it's specified clearly by the end user.
The logic of busybox's appletlib.c is totally correct from the point of busybox
itself. It's an integration problem.
To solve the above problem, this patch comment out SU_NAME in /etc/login.defs
so that the final function executed in shadow's su is as below.
execve("/bin/sh", ["-sh", "-c", "env"], [/* 6 vars */])

rootfsdebugfiles.bbclass: quick-and-dirty installation of additional files
The main motivation for this class was the observation that
a) a core-image can hang under qemu when the kernel does not
have enough entropy to generate the ssh host key
b) ssh complains about changing ssh host key files when
rebooting the same machine with different images
For debugging it is okay to reuse an ssh host key generated on the device
before. There may be also similar use cases, so the class is generic enough to
also copy more than one file or directory, with dropbear_rsa_host_key given as
example.
The documentation and naming of the class makes it clear that it
should not be used for production images.

Changes affecting past time stamps
The following changes affect some pre-1991 Chile-related time stamps
in America/Santiago, Antarctica/Palmer, and Pacific/Easter.
The 1910 transition was January 10, not January 1.
The 1918 transition was September 10, not September 1.
The UTC-4 time observed from 1932 to 1942 is now considered to be
standard time, not year-round DST.
Santiago observed DST (UTC-3) from 1946-07-15 through 1946-08-31,
then reverted to standard time, then switched its time zone to
UTC-5 on 1947-04-01.
Assume transitions before 1968 were at 00:00, since we have no data
saying otherwise.
The spring 1988 transition was 1988-10-09, not 1988-10-02.
The fall 1990 transition was 1990-03-11, not 1990-03-18.
Assume no UTC offset change for Pacific/Easter on 1890-01-01,
and omit all transitions on Pacific/Easter from 1942 through 1946
since we have no data suggesting that they existed.
One more zone has been turned into a link, as it differed
from an existing zone only for older time stamps. As usual,
this change affects UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only.
The zone's old contents have been moved to the 'backzone' file.
The affected zone is America/Montreal.

/etc/volatile.cache is a cached copy of a script (which is
generated by /etc/init.d/populate-volatile.sh) that generates
the volatile filesystem directories. Since volatile.cache is
a generated file, it is not necessarily changed if
populate-volatile.sh is updated. As a result, the stale script

If initscripts is being upgraded, make sure volatile.cache gets

However, the install doesn't remove the existing directories.
As a result, upgrading a system may result in /run as a softlink
to /var/run and /var/run as a softlink to /run, creating a circular
link.
During pre-install, check for the existence of the old softlinks and
remove them so the new directories can be installed.
