My guess is that this is due to flock disliking nfs. This impacts autobuilder build times as the workaround is that the nightly builder will need to copy the ipk dir back to the main builder in order to build the index. 31742 1 sgw 2013-04-08 23:11:40 +0000 Workaround available, deferring to 1.5 38572 2 sgw 2013-11-05 20:48:12 +0000 This issue is due to the usage of flock() in the package-index code 40552 3 sgw 2014-02-21 02:05:03 +0000 Laurentiu, Beth: did the refactor fix this issue in package-index or do we still have the flock issue buried someplace? 40559 4 laurentiu.palcu 2014-02-21 07:53:14 +0000 We're not using the shell flock anymore. We're using the bb.utils.lockfile() now. But I cannot say if this fixes the NFS issue. It needs to be tested. 40865 5 elizabeth.flanagan 2014-03-04 16:56:27 +0000 Tested and functional: http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/pub/nightly/20140303-21/ipk/
