But how can you continue, when mkimage fails and cannot generate the
needed image?
In your patch 2/2 we have this:
+ tools.Run('mkimage', '-d', input_fname, *self._args, output_fname)
+ except Exception as e:
+ tout.Error("mkimage failed: %s" % e)
+
self.SetContents(tools.ReadFile(output_fname))
mkimage is supposed to create an output file which name is in
output_fname; if mkimage fails and you continue, the next step is
tools.ReadFile(output_fname) trying to read that file. How is this
possible?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
