We've obviously got it, so where is it? 24287 1 ross.burton 2012-08-21 15:07:22 +0000 Easy way to reproduce is to use poky 91ece5d5668ee1adb5c5e3d757426a0d5187bd84. The exact circumstances of this bug appear to be to have a PACKAGECONFIG_append_{arch} override that doesn't apply for the current architecture, i.e. mesa-common has a _x86 override and we're building on ppc. This results in the _append flag being in the PACKAGECONFIG var flags that are being enumerated, and this crashes later when the code assumes it has a string. 24354 2 richard.purdie 2012-08-22 19:08:04 +0000 Patches out for review which at least massively improve this. They're not perfect but this failure case now looks like: ERROR: Error executing a python function in <code>: AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'split' ERROR: The stack trace of python calls that resulted in this exception/failure was: ERROR: File "<code>", line 2, in <module> ERROR: ERROR: File "__anon_564__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_base_bbclass", line 48, in __anon_564__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_base_bbclass ERROR: ERROR: The code that was being executed was: ERROR: 0001:__anon_124__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_staging_bbclass(d) ERROR: *** 0002:__anon_564__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_base_bbclass(d) ERROR: 0003:__anon_177__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_package_bbclass(d) ERROR: 0004:__anon_452__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_package_ipk_bbclass(d) ERROR: 0005:__anon_756__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_insane_bbclass(d) ERROR: 0006:__anon_20__media_build1_poky_meta_classes_debian_bbclass(d) ERROR: [From file: '<code>', lineno: 2, function: <module>] ERROR: 0044: extraconf = [] ERROR: 0045: for flag, flagval in pkgconfigflags.items(): ERROR: 0046: if flag == "defaultval": ERROR: 0047: continue ERROR: *** 0048: items = flagval.split(",") ERROR: 0049: num = len(items) ERROR: 0050: if num > 4: ERROR: 0051: bb.error("Only enable,disable,depend,rdepend can be specified!")
