**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Dec 22 02:59:58 2019 Dec 22 03:11:06 New news from stackoverflow: Yocto / OE : recipe with CMake install a shared library .so Dec 22 08:29:58 I have a directory that I want to copy as is into rootfs of the image. I tried many variations to do so under "do_install()", but keep getting errors. The directory resides in the same folder of the recipe. Any help? Dec 22 08:30:27 SRC_URI += "file://my_dir" Dec 22 08:31:11 TARGET_FOLDER="/opt/python_3.6.8"do_install() { install -d ${D}${TARGET_FOLDER} Dec 22 08:31:14 oops Dec 22 08:32:04 SRC_URI += "file://my_dir"TARGET_FOLDER="/target_dir"do_install() { install -d ${D}${TARGET_FOLDER} cp -r /my_dir ${D}${TARGET_FOLDER}}FILES_${PN} += "${TARGET_FOLDER}" Dec 22 08:32:17 here is what I've tried Dec 22 08:32:30 If you manage to read it Dec 22 12:18:01 nacknick: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39980145/how-to-install-recursively-my-directories-and-files-in-bitbake-recipe/47084404#47084404 Dec 22 12:18:40 Finally it worked. I have no idea why... thanks LetoThe2nd Dec 22 12:19:49 And yes, I used 'cp -r' from the very beginning of tries Dec 22 12:20:47 no idea what did or where you went wrong. the linked answer is the current best practise. :) Dec 22 12:22:04 * LetoThe2nd is of again Dec 22 12:31:09 Another question please, Yocto image comes with "BusyBox" that has many basic commands but a lot of their options are missing. Is there any way to install more "extended" version of BusyBox? Or alternatively, install the full binaries instead of BusyBox? Dec 22 13:12:04 One more: if I have missing Perl modules in the image, such this one https://metacpan.org/pod/release/SHAY/perl-5.24.1-RC5/lib/FileHandle.pm (That I can't find a way to download) - How should I install it? Dec 22 14:29:56 I need to restart the computer. If someone has answers to my question, please wait awhile so I won't miss them Dec 22 21:47:34 Hi Dec 22 21:49:15 sorry, but I'll come back tomorrow with a question. Dec 22 21:50:02 only good to be, peace :) Dec 22 23:50:32 We need to mention reduced service on irc over the horror days ... **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Dec 23 01:23:44 2019 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Dec 23 03:00:01 2019
