Description Ross Burton 2012-09-19 11:21:04 UTC 
The relatively new rpm unpacking in master is causing the PVR drivers in meta-intel to crash:

Hi Ross:

I can't reproduce this error, would you please provide more information or try it again? e.g.:

1) How to reproduce it.
2) The full log.
Comment 2 Ross Burton 2012-09-25 13:24:58 UTC 
You can't replicate it because I worked around it in meta-intel by disabling the extract.  Revert c3644c66fad3d9a91259ea382e72304dc6576ca0 and you'll see it.

Hi Ross,

I'm afraid that the c3644c66fad3d9a91259ea382e72304dc6576ca0 is the correct fix:

The cdv-pvr-driver has 3 binary RPMs, the cdv-pvr-driver_1.0.3.bb has unpacked and installed them manually, so disable the auto unpack is the correct way, if we want to unpack them automatically, then we need re-work cdv-pvr-driver_1.0.3.bb, but I don't think we have to do this, since its do_install have more than 60 lines, and it worked correctly currently, it would cost much time to  do the runtime test if we re-work it. I did a "grep" in meta-* in yocto, there are 2 recipes: rpm and cdv-pvr-driver which use the rpm as the source, the rpm works correctly since it uses srpm. 

The automatically unpack rpm in fetch2 does have a bug, the cpio command should be "cpio -di", not "cpio -i". I will send a patch to fix it.

Hi Ross,

I assume that you have read the previous comments, I will mark it as fixed.

Merged into master:

Comment 5 Ross Burton 2012-09-28 06:05:42 UTC 
Yes, thanks.  My extract=0 was certainly the right short-term fix and now the fetcher is fixed too these recipes can be simplified.
