**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Apr 18 03:00:04 2021 Apr 18 06:45:08 the TEMPDIR cant be ntfs Apr 18 20:39:56 I want to put together a recipe. It will download a tarbal from SRC_URI, check the SRC_URI[sha256sum], unpack the tarball, and copy one of the files (pxelinux.0) to the file system at /srv/tftpd Apr 18 20:41:02 Pretty simple, but when my recipe doesn't inherit any base class, nothing happens (my do_fetch and do_unpack aren't installed) Apr 18 20:41:12 I could figure this out Apr 18 20:41:31 But I wondered if there's a base class or a reference recipe that works along these lines Apr 18 23:32:12 sunkist: if no base class is inherited, it should download SRC_URI and unpack it, it just won't install. I'd look closely at WORKDIR and where you're set S to Apr 18 23:32:23 When I run `bitbake myrecipe -c listtasks' I get only listtasks, showdata, and do_build Apr 18 23:33:48 RP: so there doesn't appear to be a "do_fetch" task that cares what SRC_URI is set to Apr 18 23:34:19 sunkist: what happens if you run bitbake myrecipe -c fetch ? Apr 18 23:35:14 ERROR: Task do_fetch does not exist for target myrecipe Apr 18 23:35:56 sunkist: are you inheriting any classes in your recipe? Apr 18 23:36:20 sunkist: that sounds really odd since base.bbclass declares do_fetch and is always inherited Apr 18 23:38:12 khem: https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/75/builds/3313 Apr 18 23:53:47 RP: I had the bitbake's base.bbclass instead of oe's meta/classes/base.bbclass Apr 19 00:01:45 There are a ton of includes to other OE files in meta/classes/base.bbclass so it would be hard to bring this into bitbake Apr 19 00:02:19 That said, I'm not trying to build poky, I just wanted to build a couple of packages using the familiar yocto syntax Apr 19 00:11:14 sunkist: you could just copy the bits of base.bbclass you need? Apr 19 00:11:31 sunkist: the bitbake one probably isn't in the best of shape :/ **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Apr 19 02:59:56 2021
