Mar 24 15:15:03 I have a small problem with a custom recipe, when do_configure() is not defined or empty the recipe do no build .the source I'm using doesn't need to be configured. can somebody help please ? I've putted the small recipe I test with there : http://dpaste.com/2S4YTJR Mar 24 15:36:33 jww: perhaps try an "empty" do_configure() ... which actually means it only contains a semicolon http://dpaste.com/1VJ560K Mar 24 15:37:57 moto-timo: I'll try it, but I have to wait my current build to finish. Mar 24 15:38:30 jww: are you getting some kind of error or warning or just not expected behavior? Mar 24 15:40:35 I'm getting an error in both case, when I use empty do_configure() , the logs say syntax error I guess it's because of the missing semicolon. Mar 24 15:41:04 if I put something like echo "hello" then the package build fine. Mar 24 15:42:04 jww: right, because the semicolon will have a 0 exit code, but truly empty will be null Mar 24 15:42:35 jww: bitbake wants to see that each step has no errors Mar 24 15:43:35 it's strange it need do_configure(), I've made a small receipe earlier that just copy some file, and it didn't needed do_configure()... Mar 24 15:44:19 probably because the default behavior worked for that other recipe Mar 24 15:46:57 I see, the first one didn't even had an archive just 3 files in the files/ directory. the second have the source code of a c program. Mar 24 15:49:39 jww: right, so "most" open source C programs are going to have some kind of configuration step (think Autotools for instance). Mar 24 15:51:28 yepp but this one doesn't use autotools / cmake ( I've seen there is a nice helper for those ) it just require to run make Mar 24 16:21:13 jww: it might be a regular colon (as that is what devtool uses) rather than a semicolon Mar 24 18:22:02 * armpit sigh x11 deprecated may apps **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 25 03:00:04 2018
