The build fails (as it should) but does not provide the error message giving the correct reason why it fails. Reproducible test case: If you build "bitbake gdb" with the above set, it will fail with the incompatible license violation. If you build "bitbake gdbserver" it will claim it cannot find the package. gdbserver is provided by gdb. If the gdbserver requirement is the first package seen with the license issue, it fails, but gives the wrong error. 53346 1 ross.burton 2015-08-24 10:31:37 +0000 bitbake takes recipe names not package names, so "bitbake gdb" is the correct invocation and "bitbake gdbserver" is expected to fail.
