quilt-native do_populate_sysroot error

quilt-native do_populate_sysroot error

[Neuer User]

Hi

I needed to re-setup my yocto directory due to a fs error (was using
btrfs). Before I used master-next. Now I checked out daisy.

When I start bitbaking, I already get an error ["File not found"] when
building quilt-native. The error is in the step do_populate_sysroot. The
problem is pretty clear:

run.do_populate_sysroot:

def do_populate_sysroot(d):
    bb.build.exec_func("sysroot_stage_all", d)
    for f in (d.getVar('SYSROOT_PREPROCESS_FUNCS', True) or '').split():
        bb.build.exec_func(f, d)
    pn = d.getVar("PN", True)
    multiprov = d.getVar("MULTI_PROVIDER_WHITELIST", True).split()
    provdir =
d.expand("/home/ubuntu/yocto/build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/quilt-native/0.61-r0/sysroot-destdir//home/ubuntu/yocto/build/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/sysroot-providers/")
    bb.utils.mkdirhier(provdir)
    for p in d.getVar("PROVIDES", True).split():
        if p in multiprov:
            continue
        p = p.replace("/", "_")
        with open(provdir + p, "w") as f:
            f.write(pn)


do_populate_sysroot(d)


Well, the provdir variable is definitely wrong!

How should I fix this?

Thanks

Michael

This made me crazy, so after lots of tries I thought I should try to do
it *without* my own conf files, although I couldn't imagine why my conf
files produce such an error.

Before I copied the whole conf dir back from a backup. This time I tried
with a completely new conf dir. I did that and strangely got another
error message by "sanity-check" saying that I am missing two files
(makeinfo, chrpath).

So, I now understand that there is a file called "sanity-check" in the
conf folder that is not a config file but a state file, declaring if my
installation is complete. As I copied this also in my first attempts, it
did no longer check and so the problem that I am missing a tool was not
reported.

Now, it seems, everything is working. Nonetheless, I would like to
suggest that the sanity-check file should be moved out of the conf
folder into the state folder in a future yocto revision.

Cheers

Michael

well, conf/ dir is generated when you setup the workspace for firs
time and then we do version checks if it needs to be updated. no idea
what you backed up but usually keeping
your changes applied on top of regenerated conf/ dir is a better
option when you move
from one version of YP release to another

I backup up the whole conf dir, as I wanted to make sure that all
configuration is backed up. The problem I see is that the conf dir does
not only include configuration data, but also state data, namely the
state "system requirements have been checked" (sanity-check).

It seems to be no problem to completely restore the conf dir, when you
don't restore this one file.
