The files are owned by root. This has been observed in the Yocto build environment and eSDK environment. The eSDK has been built and installed on the same machine. Tested on Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04 and 20.04. 90799 1 florian.amstutz 2021-06-30 11:51:42 +0000 The Bug has been introduced by commit a2db4fa127a3347fc6df31f895fb0b552669119e which added ${WORKDIR}/deploy-* to PSEUDO_IGNORE_PATHS. By using the name "devtool-deploy-target-stripped" instead of "deploy-target-stripped" deploy-target with --strip works fine. 90800 2 florian.amstutz 2021-06-30 15:10:54 +0000 I have provided a patch to the mailing list: https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/yocto/message/54019 91026 3 randy.macleod 2021-07-27 15:50:41 +0000 Thanks Florian!
