Since some Yocto releases, DNF is the default package manager for installing packages in the DUT (target machine).  
+
Since [https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.3/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#using-runtime-package-management Pyro (2.3) Yocto release], DNF is the default package manager for installing packages in the DUT (target machine).  
  
 
The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNF_(software) Dandified Packaging Tool (DNF)] performs runtime package management of RPM packages. In order to use DNF for runtime package management, you must perform an initial setup on the target machine for cases where the PACKAGE_FEED_* variables were not set as part of the image that is running on the target.

Introduction[edit | edit source]

Since Pyro (2.3) Yocto release, DNF is the default package manager for installing packages in the DUT (target machine).

The Dandified Packaging Tool (DNF) performs runtime package management of RPM packages. In order to use DNF for runtime package management, you must perform an initial setup on the target machine for cases where the PACKAGE_FEED_* variables were not set as part of the image that is running on the target.

This application note details how to use DNF for installing packages with a Yocto based root file system

DNF[edit | edit source]

DNF is a software package manager that installs, updates, and removes packages on RPM-based Linux distributions. It automatically computes dependencies and determines the actions required to install packages. DNF also makes it easier to maintain groups of machines, eliminating the need to manually update each one using rpm. Introduced in Fedora 18, it has been the default package manager since Fedora 22.

More information can be found on Fedora's wiki DNF page

Configuring the DNF repository[edit | edit source]

It is possibile to add and configure DNF repositories using additional .repo files: it is recommended to define individual repositories in new or existing .repo files in the /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory.

More information in the Configuring DNF and DNF_Repositories Fedora's page.

Here below an example on how to create the .repo with the proper setting options 

root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~# mkdir -p /etc/yum.repos.d 
root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~# 
{
  echo [cortexa7hf]
  echo name=desk-mx6ul-cortexa7hf
  echo enabled=1                                                    
  echo gpgcheck=0                                                  
  echo baseurl=http://yocto.dave.eu/desk-mx6ul-l-1.0.1/cortexa7hf_neon/
} | tee >> /etc/yum.repos.d/dave.repo
root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~#
{
  echo [cortexa7hf_neon_mx6ul]
  echo name=desk-mx6ul-cortexa7hf_neon
  echo enabled=1                                                    
  echo gpgcheck=0                                                  
  echo baseurl=http://yocto.dave.eu/desk-mx6ul-l-1.0.1/cortexa7hf_neon_mx6ul/
} | tee >> /etc/yum.repos.d/dave.repo
root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~#

This allows to configure two DNF repositories available on DAVE's Yocto package server: 

root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/dave.repo
[cortexa7hf]
name=desk-mx6ul-cortexa7hf
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
baseurl=http://yocto.dave.eu/desk-mx6ul-l-1.0.1/cortexa7hf_neon/
[cortexa7hf_neon_mx6ul]
name=desk-mx6ul-cortexa7hf_neon
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
baseurl=http://yocto.dave.eu/desk-mx6ul-l-1.0.1/cortexa7hf_neon_mx6ul/
root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~#


Installing packages on target[edit | edit source]

We assume that network interface has been already configured for Internet access. In any case, a simple network configuration can be done according to the How to configure the network interfaces wiki page: 

root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~# cat /etc/systemd/network/eth0.network
[Match]
Name=eth0

# Prevent the interface loading if the kernel boots from nfs
KernelCommandLine=!nfsroot

[Network]
Address=192.168.0.90
Gateway=192.168.0.254
DNS=192.168.0.1
root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~#

Then, for installing a package, it is enough to invoke dnf with the install parameter, for example: 

root@desk-mx6ul-axelulite:~# dnf install lighttpd
