2017-07-17base-files: ignore "mesg n" error messagesPatrick Ohly
When using "su - myuser" to change from root to a non-privileged user, "mesg n" from the default .profile fails with "mesg: error: tty device is not owned by group `tty' or "mesg: cannot open /dev/ttyS0: Permission denied", depending on whether mesg comes from busybox or util-linux. This does not happen during a normal login because permissions on /dev/tty* get changed while doing that, something that isn't possible with plain "su -". As the error can't be avoided and failures of mesg probably aren't particularly important, now error messages get dumped to /dev/null.

2010-08-27Major layout change to the packages directoryRichard Purdie
Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more information about the classifications used. The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes" as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to people and has many different meanings. Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as they're no longer actively used or maintained.
