hi, not sure if it's been discussed reported before. but i ended up in a situation where a package is "empty" (e.g. it's not created) even though "files-in-packages.txt" in its buildhistory folder shows it should contain a file.
I have a synthetic example: $ cat buildhistory/packages/aarch64-linaro-linux/helloworld/latest PV = 1.0 PR = r0 DEPENDS = autoconf-native automake-native gnu-config-native libtool-cross libtool-native virtual/aarch64-linaro-linux-compilerlibs virtual/aarch64-linaro-linux-gcc virtual/libc PACKAGES = helloworld-src helloworld-dbg helloworld-staticdev helloworld-dev helloworld-doc helloworld-locale helloworld goodbyeworld LAYER = meta-rpb then: $ cat buildhistory/packages/aarch64-linaro-linux/helloworld/goodbyeworld/files-in-package.txt drwxr-xr-x root root 4096 ./usr drwxr-xr-x root root 4096 ./usr/bin -rwxr-xr-x root root 6144 ./usr/bin/goodbyeworld However goodbyeworld package does not exist, and /usr/bin/goodbyeworld is in the helloworld package: $ dpkg -c tmp-rpb-glibc/deploy/ipk/aarch64/helloworld_1.0-r0_aarch64.ipk drwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2019-05-23 08:25 ./ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2019-05-23 08:25 ./usr/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2019-05-23 08:25 ./usr/bin/ -rwxr-xr-x root/root 6144 2019-05-23 08:25 ./usr/bin/goodbyeworld -rwxr-xr-x root/root 6144 2019-05-23 08:25 ./usr/bin/helloworld It is worth saying that the file should indeed be in helloworld package since there was a bug in my recipe! So buildhistory is wrong here. The recipe is a simple one: SRC_URI = "file://helloworld.c \ file://goodbyeworld.c \ file://Makefile.am \ file://configure.ac \ file://COPYING" S = "${WORKDIR}" inherit autotools PACKAGES += "goodbyeworld" FILES_goodbyeworld += "${bindir}/goodbyeworld" Clearly the recipe has a bug, and if I do this instead: PACKAGES =+ "goodbyeworld" /usr/bin/goodbyeworld ends up in the right package... however I think in the previous case, buildhistory should have shown /usb/bin/goodbyeworld in helloworld package, not goodbyeworld... I was testing on warrior, but i can try to reproduce on master if needed.. thanks! -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
