Hi Ross, I check the values of d.getVarFlag('do_configure', 'task') and d.getVarFlag('do_unpack', 'task') for gcc-source. But it seems that both values are 1. I use the following command to get the values, os.system("echo 'do_unpack=%s, do_configure=%s, noexec=%s, pn=%s' >> /tmp/task.txt" %(d.getVarFlag('do_unpack', 'task'),d.getVarFlag('do_configure', 'task'),d.getVarFlag('do_configure', 'noexec'),pn)) Does I miss something? I query several people about how to get the current tasks of a recipe. But I get nothing more. Thanks!
