If you are using Yocto 2.1 or later, it's safer and easier to construct BBMASK as set of space separated expressions rather than trying to append to a single regex. e.g. in this case: BBMASK += "qemu_qoriq.bb" > Then I wipe out the cache by deleting the "tmp/" directory. There's no need to wipe out sstate or tmp to test this. If you try to build a recipe which doesn't exist or is masked, you'll get an error regardless of whether the recipe has been built previously. > Now I would expect > bitbake -n -c fetch qemu > to give a 'Nothing PROVIDES' error. > > That is not what happens.
