Hi Due to this commit here
commit ca257adc587bb0937ea76d8b32b654fdbf4192b8 Author: Nitin A Kamble <[email protected]> Date: Thu Jun 3 21:50:02 2010 -0700 bitbake decodeurl: fix the file:// url handling Without this patch decoding a url of this kind file://dir/filename gives path=/filename host=dir. With the patch it decodes as path=/dir/filename host="" Probably nobody stumbled on this issue yet because nobody used file:// urls with directory names in the path. (From Poky rev: c3682bf89bdf236a4b4d834069d947b6a1456791) Signed-off-by: Nitin A Kamble <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <[email protected]> few recipes in OE are broken now. Previous behavior was that if it has file://pam.d/securetty in SRC_URI then bitbake would copy it into $WORKDIR/pam.d/securetty and recipes used this location to access these files. But after this commit the directory is ignored and it gets copied into ${WORKDIT} Problem is that I have found three places where it happens two were ok because the build failed as it could not find the file where it was looking for but third one took me a day to debug because it copied only if directory existed otherwise it used the old files so the build passed and image got created but it would not let login happen see shadow recipes do_install_append() { # Ensure that /etc/skel is created so any default files that we want # copied into new users home # dirs can be put in there later (ideal for .xinitrc for example). install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/skel/ # Ensure that the image has as /var/spool/mail dir so shadow can put # mailboxes there if the user # reconfigures Shadow to default (see sed below). install -d ${D}${SHADOW_MAILDIR} if [ -e ${WORKDIR}/pam.d ]; then install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/pam.d/ install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/pam.d/* ${D}${sysconfdir}/pam.d/ fi ... I would propose the revert the above commit as I am reluctant to fix so many recipes I know only 3 and who know how many more will start doing wrong things silently.
