== List IPK package depencencies ==

Very often you may need to detect the runtime dependencies having a .IPK package.
the dependency list is shown using the '''oe-pkgdata-util''' command provided by Yocto Project.

 $ oe-pkgdata-util read-value RDEPENDS canutils
 
 iproute2 glibc (>= 2.29) libsocketcan (>= 0.0.10)

For example the command above lists the dependencies of the ''' canutils''' package and the dependencies are:

* iproute2
* glibc (>= 2.29)
* libsocketcan (>= 0.0.10)

These dependencies are seen from the runtime point of view.
