I need a full featured ps command that accepts the -a option in my Yocto linux OS.
I've checked this question and so, I've been trying to install procps alongside busybox in my image, by including in my workspace's conf/local.conf the following line:
#~ From openembedded-core
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " procps"
and, I had already included in my bblayers.conf file the openembedded layer:
# POKY_BBLAYERS_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
# changes incompatibly
POKY_BBLAYERS_CONF_VERSION = "2"
BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
BBFILES ?= ""
BBLAYERS ?= " \

However bitbake gives me a conflict error:

Error: Transaction check error:

There must be a way for specifying that we want to use all busybox tools except for the 'ps' command, which we want to take from procps. Does anyone know how?
