FYI the eSDK will use whatever you set in DISTRO - you have your own
distribution, but I assume you are still referencing poky - perhaps as an
include from your distro configuration? At least meta-poky must be in your
bblayers.conf, otherwise I don't think you'd be getting this error.
Regardless of that, there is a bug here somewhere. What do you have under
layers/ in the generated SDK? Are you setting TEMPLATECONF anywhere?
I don't have meta-poky, nor any mention of poky, in any of my layers.
I'm still relying on the poky GIT tree, but that's for historical reasons
(started long before the OE-core split).
I think that's where the problem lies. You may not realise it, but the
TEMPLATECONF environment variable is being set simply by using the poky
repository, since there is a .templateconf directory at its root that sets it
to "meta-poky/conf" if it isn't already set. This isn't a problem during
normal operation since meta-poky/conf exists there - you'll just be using
poky's template local.conf and bblayers.conf rather than any other. When you
generate the eSDK though, meta-poky won't be copied into the eSDK because that
layer is not in your bblayers.conf and thus you get the error.
I will have to try and figure a way around this. In the mean time you should
be able to change the saved value in <builddir>/conf/templateconf.cfg to
"meta/conf" to work around the issue, but it'll come back if you create a new
build directory unless you set TEMPLATECONF in the external environment before
running oe-init-build-env.
I'm still confused. There is no mention of meta-poky, or of the $DISTRO 'poky'
anywhere in my <builddir>/conf:
gthomas@europa:p8701_2016-10-22$ cat conf/templateconf.cfg
meta-rainier-am335x-p8701/conf
gthomas@europa:p8701_2016-10-22$ grep -i poky conf/*
conf/bblayers.conf: /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta \
conf/bblayers.conf: /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-oe \
conf/bblayers.conf: /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-amltd \
conf/bblayers.conf: /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-rainier-am335x-p8701 \
conf/bblayers.conf: /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-ti \
conf/bblayers.conf: /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-webserver \
You're right in your implication that I hadn't tested this - I had tested
alternative distros with the oe-core repo but not with the poky repo, so I
hadn't encountered this issue. I've filed a bug [1] to track the issue.
Cheers,
Paul
