Description Eric Bénard 2012-03-23 14:42:33 UTC 
in a plain oe-core setup, bitbake already worked in TMPDIR=tmp-eglibc
If I then launch hob, it creates a new TMPDIR=tmp-eglibc-eglibc (note that TCLIBCAPPEND is appended twice) which seems wrong as I would expect it to reuse the previous TMPDIR.

If I remove the old tmp-eglibc dir, then hob creates a new tmp-eglibc dir, so it seems that when it finds an old TMPDIR, hob appends again TCLIBCAPPEND instead of reusing the detected TMPDIR.
Comment 1 Eric Bénard 2012-03-23 15:57:10 UTC 
Starting a build without an existing tmp directory clearly shows the bug as tmp-eglibc is created to create pseudo, and then tmp-eglibc-eglibc is created to continue the build.
