Description Christian Scott 2020-11-02 06:14:30 UTC
Using .. in TMPDIR causes somewhat confusing errors during do_populate_sysroot_setscene. The underlying error is that files cannot be found. This happened while running the task on meta/recipes-extended/xz-native and meta/recipes-core/dbus. Using an absolute path fixed the problem.

Make one of the sanity checks look for this and error out.
