**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Sep 05 03:00:58 2019 Sep 05 07:51:02 Good morning, I'm not entirely sure if this is the right place to ask this but I have an issue with a recipe that won't build when I put openembedded-core into a subfolder. The recipe in question is python3-setuptools-scm-native. The install process (python3 setup.py install) allways fails with "tarfile.EmptyHeaderError: empty header". The strange thing is that it only fails when openembedded-core is not the root of the git repository but a submodule in a Sep 05 07:51:03 subdirectory. Sep 05 08:54:38 why do optimization flags exist in OE bitbake configurations? Sep 05 08:55:27 optimization flags are not something a BSP should concern itself with. such flags are up to the individual packages to deal with. Sep 05 08:55:43 BSPs should set machine/architecture specific flags, not optimization ones. Sep 05 08:57:32 lol, ok found the issue myself. the root repository was fresh without commits in it and there is a bug with setuptools-scm where it fails to install with an fresh git repository https://github.com/pypa/setuptools_scm/issues/298 Sep 05 15:08:34 dv_: many distros want to exert control over that at a higher level. look at gentoo and debian (dpkg-buildflags, DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS). Sep 05 15:40:26 kergoth: but then don't implement it directly like that. Sep 05 15:41:09 perhaps instead, set distro features, like debug-build or release-build, and let packages configure it individually Sep 05 15:41:24 Sounds like you want to submit a patch Sep 05 15:41:24 I mean, let packages/recipes choose the actual flags themselves Sep 05 15:41:42 heh, not anytime soon.. but I can put it on my list Sep 05 16:12:06 Finally occured to me to add the logo to the github page :) Sep 05 16:12:08 https://github.com/openembedded Sep 05 16:19:25 Crofton|work: the aspect ratio almost looks slightly off Sep 05 16:21:42 always a critic Sep 05 16:25:15 check again in a bit **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Sep 06 03:00:56 2019
