Python function subprocess.call() returns the return value of the executed process. If return values are not checked, errors may go unnoticed and bad things can happen.
Change all callers of subprocess.call() which do not check for the return value to use subprocess.check_call() which raises CalledProcessError if the subprocess returns with non-zero value. https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#using-the-subprocess-module All users of the function were found with: $ git grep "subprocess\.call" | \ egrep -v 'if.*subprocess\.call|=\ +subprocess\.call|return.*subprocess\.call' Tested similar patch on top of yocto jethro. Only compile tested core-image-minimal on poky master branch.
