Hi Jeffrey,
the extension "ptch" is not treated as patchfile by Yocto (only *.diff and
*.patch). You have two options:
- Rename your patch in inputrc.patch
- Adding the apply switch:
SRC_URI_append =" file://inputrc.ptch;apply=yes"
In this way you are telling yocto that 'inputrc.ptch' is a patch file
In both cases you can remove your append.
This should be enough.
Best regards,
Gabriele
