This is intentional in order to allow you to freely set variable values to expandable expressions without having them expanded prematurely. If you do wish to expand a variable within a Python function, use d.getVar("X", True), or for more complicated expressions use d.expand(). 59393 1 srifenbark 2016-02-23 17:23:18 +0000 Paul, See http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.1/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#bitbake-style-python-functions and let me know if the note is okay. Pretty much what you suggested. 59690 2 srifenbark 2016-03-03 17:24:13 +0000 Paul, Check this out when you can... the bug got moved to Medium +.

Setting status to RESOLVED and moving the doc flag to "done." Scott
