Description jonathan.yong 2017-10-11 23:40:54 UTC 
I get an error while building an image:

ERROR: image-demo-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: Unable to install packages. Command '........./rootfs  --force_postinstall --prefer-arch-to-version   install rmc packagegroup-base-extended packagegroup-core-boot opkg psplash run-postinsts linux-firmware kernel-modules' returned 1:
Collected errors:
 * Solver encountered 1 problem(s):
 * Problem 1/1:
 *   - nothing provides linux-firmware-imx-sdma-license needed by linux-firmware-1:0.0+git0+a61ac5cf83-r0.all
 *
 * Solution 1:
 *   - do not ask to install a package providing linux-firmware

Here is the image recipe:
IMAGE_FEATURES += "splash"
LICENSE = "MIT"
inherit core-image
IMAGE_INSTALL += "kernel-modules linux-firmware"

Fixed by adding a line to linux-firmware_git.bb:
FILES_${PN}-imx-sdma-license = "${nonarch_base_libdir}/firmware/LICENSE.sdma_firmware"
