On Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS with Python 3.8.2 "devtool modify" fails with Exception: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_sysconfigdata'
e.g.: devtool modify --no-same-dir --branch fit u-boot ~/ws/w/dtool/u-boot-fit ERROR: Error executing a python function in exec_python_func() autogenerated: The stack trace of python calls that resulted in this exception/failure was: File: 'exec_python_func() autogenerated', lineno: 2, function: <module> 0001: *** 0002:devtool_post_unpack(d) 0003: [...] File: '/usr/lib/python3.8/sysconfig.py', lineno: 421, function: _init_posix 0417:def _init_posix(vars): 0418: """Initialize the module as appropriate for POSIX systems.""" 0419: # _sysconfigdata is generated at build time, see _generate_posix_vars() 0420: name = _get_sysconfigdata_name() *** 0421: _temp = __import__(name, globals(), locals(), ['build_time_vars'], 0) 0422: build_time_vars = _temp.build_time_vars 0423: vars.update(build_time_vars) 0424: 0425:def _init_non_posix(vars): Exception: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_sysconfigdata' It happens because u-boot (and likely other recipes) eventually inherits python3native.bbclass that sets _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME="_sysconfigdata" and this affects host Python. Hence, unset _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_NAME for devtool completely.
