I have this error when I tried to build an Angstrom image for beagle board.
I tried to add this line 
    BBMASK = ".*/meta-ti/recipes-misc/"
to conf/local.conf file , but the error still there.
also I saw this : https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-ti/2012-June/001279.html
but my linux.inc is already hasn't require linux-tools.inc

Hmm, I don't think the above is the correct Angstrom configuration. Looks more 
like the Poky one...

Can you show us your bblayers.conf?

ExpansionError during parsing

[Nemicolopterus Crypticus]

I can't seem to get simple bash code to parse properly in my recipes.
I have something like this:

do_install_prepend(){
     bb.build.exec_func('do_change_dir', d)
}

do_change_dir(){
     cd <a directory>
 }

I get this when I try bitbake -c clean -f <project>:
NOTE: Error during finalise of <path>/<to>/<recipe>/recipe.bb          |
ETA:  --:--:--
ERROR: ExpansionError during parsing <path>/<to>/<recipe>/recipe.bb:
Failure expanding variable do_install: ShellSyntaxError:
LexToken(TOKEN,"'do_change_dir',",0,0)
followed by:
  LexToken(TOKEN,'d',0,0)
  LexToken(RPARENS,')',0,0)
  LexToken(NEWLINE,'\n',0,0)
  LexToken(TOKEN,'autotools_do_install',0,0)
  LexToken(NEWLINE,'\n',0,0)

This looks identical to this:
https://www.mail-archive.com/yocto%40yoctoproject.org/msg09403.html
https://www.mail-archive.com/yocto%40yoctoproject.org/msg04862.html

What am I missing?

do_install is a shell function, so bitbake is parsing your python code as shell.

You want to do this:

do_install_prepend() {
  cd <somewhere>
}

If you need to do this though, have a look to see if setting S or B is
sufficient.

Ah I see - that makes sense, thank you.

I found this:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#functions

But I'm not sure how to tell whether a given do_<task> function is a shell
function or a python function. Is there a way to find that out?

Also thanks for the hint about S or B - those may indeed be helpful!

If you want to append/prepend then you'll need to look at the initial
definition - most of the core tasks are in base.bbclass or
package.bbclass.
