**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Sep 25 02:59:56 2021 Sep 25 10:40:20 rburton: the situation is: I have made a depot_tools package for Google's depot tools, another recipe uses the depot_tools recipe to download/configure/build Sep 25 10:40:46 Google's depot_tools is a collection of scripts you're supposed to point your $PATH to Sep 25 10:41:23 I can't just dump all of depot_tools into ${D}/usr/bin because it would conflict with other things, for example depot_tools contains ninja which is also provided by another package which makes bitbake angry Sep 25 10:42:11 ideally, I would want the depot_tools package itself to say that anything which uses depot_tools should have /usr/bin/depot_tools in its $PATH Sep 25 10:42:23 ideally that would also work in the SDK Sep 25 17:38:25 mort: depot-tools recipe should install to bindir/depot-tools, then write a class that depends on depot-tools-native and sets EXTRANATIVEPATH=depot-tools Sep 25 17:39:09 rburton: ah, I see. So EXTRANATIVEPATH is like a $PATH variable but relative to bindir? Sep 25 18:53:27 there might be something I'm not understanding. When I depend on the python-native package, there's no recipe-sysroot-native/${bindir}/python binary, instead there's a recipe-sysroot-native/${bindir}/python-native folder which contains the python binary Sep 25 18:53:43 are you supposed to have to use EXTRANATIVEPATH="python-native" to use python? Sep 25 19:25:58 mort: usually you would `inherit python3native` Sep 25 19:49:14 I see Sep 25 19:49:41 python2native in my case tho because :( Sep 25 22:06:28 Yes, that. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Sep 26 02:59:58 2021
