it depends on components build systems some are more accommodating of the env passed to them some are not. So in many cases you have to patch the make system of the component to allow it to accept changes to variables passed from bitbake env from what you explain it seems you might have to look into component's build system to accommodate it. > Thanks > > > -- > _______________________________________________ > yocto mailing list > yocto@yoctoproject.org > https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
