Yes we are aware of this issue, this will happen only if you have built the 
firmware successfully before. If it is a clean project it would fail during 
do_deploy mechanism.

This depends on a clean state, something that is not respectful of Yocto's 
normal behaviour. Plus it falsely fail at do_deploy, which is completely 
misleading.

In the short term, as Mike suggests, the compile step could start by removing 
the output from it's workdir, then test it's presence at the end. I will see 
about making a patch for this.



If the task only fails at do_deploy, then Yocto would only retry that step, without calling do_compile again because that did not fail, and keep failing at deploy over and over again until some frustrated human intervenes and clears the sstate cache or in some other way makes the compile re-run.

In other words, it really needs fixing.
