You're trying to add constraints which make the tasks effectively impossible to order so I'd advise against that. I'd suggest removing the ordering constraints, or changing to different tasks as this choice doesn't seem to make sense. 85812 2 ross.burton 2019-12-12 16:09:01 +0000 Some more context: - addtask populate_sysroot after do_install populate_sysroot takes the install files and prepare a sysroot. - addtask package after do_install package takes the install files and prepares the package structure. Those tasks should be running in parallel because they're unrelated. Your addtask is enforcing ordering that doesn't make sense and in the best case will slow the build down. So, the fix is to change the ordering. 4597 2019-12-10 09:38:55 +0000 2019-12-12 16:03:18 +0000 Test recipe to reproduce error test-useradd-with-my-stuff-after-populate-sysroot-before-package.bb text/plain 236 ibaldachini REVTQ1JJUFRJT04gPSAiVGVzdCIKTElDRU5TRSA9ICJDTE9TRUQiCgpQViA9ICIxLjAiCgppbmhl cml0IHVzZXJhZGQKVVNFUkFERF9QQUNLQUdFUyA9ICIke1BOfSIKVVNFUkFERF9QQVJBTV8ke1BO fSA9ICJzZXR1cDsiCgpmYWtlcm9vdCBkb19teV9zdHVmZiAoKSB7CiAgZWNobyAiZG8gc3R1ZmYi Cn0KCmFkZHRhc2sgbXlfc3R1ZmYgYWZ0ZXIgZG9fcG9wdWxhdGVfc3lzcm9vdCBiZWZvcmUgZG9f cGFja2FnZQo=
