I am using a build environment based on the yocto project from one of the big HW suppliers in the mobile industries. They are continuously breaking the principles behind the yocto project and at one point they managed to break the sstate cache because they are doing things in there own way instead of using what already exists. They managed to fix the sstate cache but it now looks to only work when using there machines when I am defining my own machine even though it is a copy of one of theirs the sstate cache it is not working. The sstate cache is detect and the SSTATE_DIR is correct but it finds only a handful of matches and builds the rest from scratch. Is there a logical explanation for this? Or is this yet again some custom crap that this supplier have done. FYI if you know what supplier I am talking about I would very much recommend staying the hell away from them this is the worst linux distro I have ever worked with both on the build and on the system it is some kind of freak combination of a normal linux system and android worst combination ever.
