I am currently looking at porting from “rocko” to “zeus”…

 

Under your migration pages, I saw that in the project 2.7 release the following change occurred to BitBake:

 

“Bitbake now checks BBFILE_COLLECTIONS for duplicate entries and triggers an error if any are found.”

 

Does this imply that Yocto/BitBake would now throw a “duplicate BBFILE_COLLECTIONS”, if say prior to 2.7 one had 2 layers such as:

 

(1)    ./workspace_1/poky/../meta-intel

(2)    ./workspace_1/poky/../meta-1/meta-2/meta-intel

 

Where #1 was the actual meta-intel recipe, and #2 was for modification/configuration of #1 ?

 

Thanks,

Steve

Maybe the better question is, Does the BBFILE_COLLECTIONS name add now have to be unique ?

In this scenario the  BBFILE_COLLECTIONS name  is currently set to += "intel" for both the respective layer.conf files...

Currently under the "rocko" release this does not cause an isuue.

Thanks,

Hey,

Yes it got changed to make it clear that it has to be unique. You will get slot of fun when updating to dunfell.

Also each recipes will have its own sysroot. 

Cheers

I am not sure I am following ...

#1 is the actual package being built, #2 is the mods to the recipes for the image I am building...

    (1)    ./workspace_1/poky/../meta-intel

    (2)    ./workspace_1/poky/../meta-1/meta-2/meta-intel
These directories share the same name, but the local.conf for #2 requires a unique BBFILE_COLLECTIONS name now ?

If I change the BBFILE_COLLECTIONS name to be unique,  I see the following error:

your 2nd meta-intel probably still has:
LICENSE_PATH += "${LAYERDIR}/custom-licenses"
in layer.conf without having this directory included in the layer?
