Confusing error

Confusing error

[Gary Thomas]

I'm getting a very confusing error from bitbake.  I'm using a snapshot
from Poky/Yocto (equivalent to 1.8 release) with my own $DISTRO

   $ bitbake nand-installer-image
   NOTE: Started PRServer with DBfile: /home/gary/tmp/p0381_2015-05-05/p0381_build/cache/prserv.sqlite3, IP: 127.0.0.1, PORT: 41585, PID: 460

But, there is such a provider and I can build it (from the same build tree):
   $ bitbake virtual/bootloader

   meta-browser      = "<unknown>:<unknown>"

   NOTE: Preparing RunQueue
   NOTE: Executing SetScene Tasks
   NOTE: Executing RunQueue Tasks
         ...

After much research, I found that this is happening because I have
   MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS="virtual/bootloader linux-firmware-iwlwifi-5xxx"

If I remove the 'virtual/bootloader' from MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS,
the confusion (and error) go away.  Any ideas what's happening and why
I might be getting this confusing error?

Thanks

The confusion here is between runtime targets (package names, i.e. what you 
should specify in MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS) and build-time targets e.g. 
virtual/bootloader. virtual/bootloader is not a runtime target (hence "Nothing 
RPROVIDES ..." and thus doesn't belong in MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS. I suspect 
what you want instead is:

EXTRA_IMAGEDEPENDS += "virtual/bootloader"

Cheers,
Paul

Thanks for the explanation, that fixes my problem.

Lately I've been seeing errors like these:

I'm not sure what triggers these errors - I do have more than
one bitbake build running (separate directories).  I have a local
copy of the metadata and it was not touched during these builds.

I'm using Poky/Yocto rev 840e221ea7c35177fda37af618c4727fa7754789
but I've seen them for a couple of months now.

Ideas?

Thanks

Sorry, ignore this error (overly ambitious cut&paste).  My question for this
thread it just about the metadata errors...
