Recipe differences between Danny and Master

Recipe differences between Danny and Master

[Jim Abernathy]

I have a recipe layers I use for test videos and audios that I included 
in prior BSPs I've done.  The last I tested it was Danny and it worked 
fine.  Today I tried to add it to a BSP that had previously built, using 
the latest pull from Master, complete without errors and booted.

Once I added my layer, it built with a number of errors.  So something 
has changed, that I missed.  Below is my one of my recipes and the 
console log:

DESCRIPTION = "my audio test files"
SECTION = "examples"
LICENSE = "CLOSED"

MY_DESTINATION = "/home/root/myaudios"

SRC_URI = "file://myaudios-1.0/myaudios-1.0.tar.gz"

do_install_append() {
         install -d ${D}${MY_DESTINATION}
         install -m 0644 ${S}/* ${D}${MY_DESTINATION}
}

PR = "r0"

FILES_${PN} += "${MY_DESTINATION}/*"

You don't need to specify the myaudios-1.0 section, that's implicit in
the search paths along with the unversioned ${BPN} and files/.
SRC_URI="file://myaudios-1.0.tar.gz" will find it and also work with
every previous Yocto release.

This must have worked previously because the search path logic was
rather overcomplicated and unpredictable.  It was recently cleaned up
but obviously you were unknowingly relying on undocumented behaviour.

I have not tested this back on Danny, but it seems to be past the point 
where it couldn't find anything. I have no idea how it worked in the 
past. I remember having to toy with it a lot.  I'm still not clear about 
all the paths in a recipe.  So I just copy others and try things that 
eventually work.

Thanks,

The basic rule is that for a file: uri in a SRC_URI field, relative to the .bb it searches $PN-PV, $PN, then files/.

Obviously there are complications with extending that search path, and .bbappends extending the search path, but that's the underlying principle.

The practical result of this is that you can split general, per-package, and per-version files, which is useful when for example you need different patches per version of a package, but all versions can share an initscript.
