Looks like gconf.bbclass needs some robustness for highly parallel builds. If someone else has time to look at this that would be appreciated. 20654 2 dvhart 2012-04-18 15:54:55 +0000 When do the messages reported in Comment 1 appear? Which log? 20655 3 josh 2012-04-18 16:08:22 +0000 (In reply to comment #2) > When do the messages reported in Comment 1 appear? Which log? gconftool is used during postinst I believe so they'd be in log.do_rootfs 22494 4 ross.burton 2012-06-22 10:57:09 +0000 Turns out that gconf schema registration was happening in make install, which is wrong for a packaging system. poky-contrib/ross/gconf should go towards fixing this, and might even solve the parallel problem in gthumb[1] [1] http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=688b1ca792a9ce5b3aff3fd3b0fa075fca5a8e81 22590 5 ross.burton 2012-06-26 10:28:17 +0000 My hunch is that this problem is caused by multiple recipes running their do_install stage at once and simultaneously running gconftool to register their schemas, so they're racing to badly do atomic writes. This shouldn't happen as schema registration should happen in postinst, package builds should be disabling the registration process. I've just sent a patch to oe-core to fix this. 22591 6 ross.burton 2012-06-26 10:28:40 +0000 (moving to core as it's a problem in gconf.bbclass) 22790 7 ross.burton 2012-07-04 14:39:53 +0000 Fixed gconf.bbclass merged.
