Description Robert Yang 2013-09-08 02:32:06 UTC

buildhistory.bbclass can't find the PV changed, steps to reproduce:

$ echo INHERIT += \"buildhistory\" >> conf/local.conf
$ echo BUILDHISTORY_COMMIT = \"1\" >> conf/local.conf
$ bitbake make # make 3.82 is built
$ echo echo PREFERRED_VERSION_make = \"3.81\" >> conf/local.conf
$ bitbake make

We can see the "No Changes" in the git log, and the file doesn't changed:

/buildarea/lyang1/wd$ cat buildhistory/packages/armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi/make/latest
PV = 3.82
PR = r3

The should be 3.81 and r1.

I tested this on poky/master:  6b4f7e4b26c51f0c1517c0a697031e7bc488b76f.
And it worked out well.

chenqi@pek-hostel-vm07:~/poky/build-sato$ grep -i preferred_version conf/local.conf
PREFERRED_VERSION_make = "3.81"
chenqi@pek-hostel-vm07:~/poky/build-sato$ cat buildhistory/packages/i586-poky-linux/make/latest 
PV = 3.81
PR = r1

Mark it as RESOLVED/WONTFIX.
