Probably this is just as check that needs to return an error message instead of an exception. 63934 1 humberto.ibarra.lopez 2016-07-13 17:02:45 +0000 The conflict here is that 'existing_kbranch' property fails because it is encountered more than once and last value returned didn't have a branches base. It is odd to query it in the first place since it depends on knowing the specific kernel_choice being used and we don't have one here. Will continue to check this one. 65558 2 leonardo.sandoval.gonzalez 2016-08-26 14:47:08 +0000 Plan to tackle this on M4. 73647 3 daniela.plascencia 2017-06-02 15:17:06 +0000 Some bbappend files inside scripts/lib/bsp pointed to kernel 4.8, a version that's no longer supported (see commits 6751dce4cf and 1632f6623c), affecting the execution of some scripts. Regarding this bug, 'yocto-bsp list <karch> property <property_name>' expected the SRC_URI of the 4.8 kernel recipe, but failed as the file doesn't exist within poky anymore. A patch removing such files has been sent to the mailing list for review. 73678 4 daniela.plascencia 2017-06-05 16:04:05 +0000 Merged at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=0e9de873f80927e1dc556f283dbfe51435de159d
