Hello, This seems like it should be an easy task, but perhaps I'm missing something very basic so it is not working.
I have working recipe that installs the fluxbox window manager. However I want to customize the default runtime configuration files located in /usr/share/fluxbox. To do this I created fluxbox_1.3.5.bbappend in order to replace the default configuration files with my own. This file contains the following: FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend_poky := "${THISDIR}/files:" SRC_URI = "file://apps \ file://init \ file://keys \ file://menu \ file://overlay \ file://windowmenu " # # Install the customized Fluxbox configuration files. # do_install_append() { install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/apps ${D}{datadir}/fluxbox/apps install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/init ${D}{datadir}/fluxbox/init install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/keys ${D}{datadir}/fluxbox/keys install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/menu ${D}{datadir}/fluxbox/menu install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/windowmenu ${D}{datadir}/fluxbox/windowmenu } However now when I bitbake fluxbox it fails to configure: ERROR: Function failed: fluxbox: LIC_FILES_CHKSUM points to an invalid file: /export/home/dwsmith/poky-fido-13.0.0/build/tmp/work/ppc7400-poky-linux/fluxbox/1.3.5-r0/git/COPYING ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: /export/home/dwsmith/poky-fido-13.0.0/build/tmp/work/ppc7400-poky-linux/fluxbox/1.3.5-r0/temp/log.do_configure.32643 Log data follows: | DEBUG: Executing python function sysroot_cleansstate | DEBUG: Python function sysroot_cleansstate finished | DEBUG: SITE files ['endian-big', 'bit-32', 'powerpc-common', 'common-linux', 'common-glibc', 'powerpc32-linux', 'powerpc-linux', 'common'] | DEBUG: Executing shell function autotools_preconfigure | DEBUG: Shell function autotools_preconfigure finished | DEBUG: Executing python function autotools_copy_aclocals | DEBUG: Python function autotools_copy_aclocals finished | DEBUG: Executing shell function do_configure | NOTE: nothing to configure | DEBUG: Shell function do_configure finished | DEBUG: Executing python function do_qa_configure | NOTE: Checking autotools environment for common misconfiguration | DEBUG: Python function do_qa_configure finished | ERROR: Function failed: fluxbox: LIC_FILES_CHKSUM points to an invalid file: /export/home/dwsmith/poky-fido-13.0.0/build/tmp/work/ppc7400-poky-linux/fluxbox/1.3.5-r0/git/COPYING ERROR: Task 5 (/export/home/dwsmith/poky-fido-13.0.0/meta-lightwm-master/recipes-fluxbox/fluxbox/fluxbox_1.3.5.bb, do_configure) failed with exit code '1' NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 793 tasks of which 792 didn't need to be rerun and 1 failed. Why would adding a do_install_append cause the config to now fail? What am I missing? I can remove fluxbox_1.3.5.bbappend and it works fine, so there is obviously something I'm not doing right.
