Hi!
Apologies upfront if this is the wrong list. I'm not always sure when
things should go to the yocto list and when to oe-core.
Anyway, my question/issue with danny.
In base.bbclass I see a default base_do_compile that reads:
base_do_compile() {
if [ -e Makefile -o -e makefile -o -e GNUmakefile ]; then
oe_runmake || die "make failed"
else
bbnote "nothing to compile"
fi
}
There is also a default base_do_install() that is empty.
Wouldn't it be more logical if the base_do_install would read:
base_do_install() {
if [ -e Makefile -o -e makefile -o -e GNUmakefile ]; then
oe_runmake install || die "make failed"
else
bbnote "nothing to install"
fi
}
Currently people using only base, need to add a do_install to their recipe
but no do_compile (which is somewhat odd; if there is a makefile it seems
logical to use it for install too).
Appreciate your feedback, if needed i can file a bug report and/or submit a
patch
Frans
