Actually, that explains most of my difficulties but not all of them. The remaining ones seem to come down to missing dependencies but I am not quite clear on why the dependencies are missing. The problematic recipes are Java ones. The Java toolchain, as you might expect, has a fairly complicated dependency tree but essentially: - any Java package has DEPENDS = "virtual/javac-native", which is PROVIDEd by ecj-bootstrap-native.bb - ecj-bootstrap-native.bb is basically just a wrapper script which runs the Java compiler. The actual compiler implementation is in libecj- bootstrap-native.bb and ecj-bootstrap-native.bb RDEPENDS on that. If I run "bitbake -D -D ..." then I see: DEBUG: Added runtime dependencies ['libecj-bootstrap-native'] for .../meta-java/recipes-core/ecj/ecj-bootstrap-native.bb but this dependency edge doesn't show up in task-depends.dot and, sure enough, libecj-bootstrap-native isn't getting installed into the recipe-sysroot. Is there some other piece of logic that is squashing these dependencies? Or is there somewhere else that I ought to be looking for them? thanks p.
