![]() netcf fails to build on certain hosts with newer versions of git installed as follows: | ./bootstrap: Bootstrapping from checked-out netcf sources... | ./bootstrap: consider installing git-merge-changelog from gnulib | ./bootstrap: getting gnulib files... | error: pathspec 'gnulib' did not match any file(s) known to git. If we do a devshell we will see that our configure prepend that intended to _create_ the .gitmodules has instead _modified_ it and left us with this change present: sh-4.3# git diff diff --git a/.gitmodules b/.gitmodules index 7acb1ea19ca7..2d10b0e0e0fe 100644 --- a/.gitmodules +++ b/.gitmodules @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@ [submodule "gnulib"] - path = .gnulib - url = git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib.git + path = gnulib + url = git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib sh-4.3# What happens is that the newer git does not respect uncommitted changes to the .gitmodules file, and hence the path ".gnulib" is still considered valid vs. the in tree updated path "gnulib". It doesn't help any that the package has its own tracked files in gnulib/ that we stomp over, but the real fail is just uncommitted changes to the .gitmodule as this insertion of a random path shows: sh-4.3# git diff diff --git a/.gitmodules b/.gitmodules index 7acb1ea19ca7..91bd45f8e4d4 100644 --- a/.gitmodules +++ b/.gitmodules @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@ [submodule "gnulib"] - path = .gnulib + path = gnulibaaa url = git://git.sv.gnu.org/gnulib.git sh-4.3# git --version git version 2.7.4 sh-4.3# git submodule init fatal: no submodule mapping found in .gitmodules for path '.gnulib' sh-4.3# Since the original bbclass simply assumed there was no .gitmodules file to begin with, we can easily solve this by not clobbering it and respect the path choice used by the package itself. As the version of ./bootstrap shipped with netcf supports this: --no-git do not use git to update gnulib. Requires that --gnulib-srcdir point to a correct gnulib snapshot we can use it in conjunction with the pathspec since we know the gnulib was just copied in from the sysroot, and does not need to try and pull any further updates.

meta-networking
This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related packages and configuration. It should be useful directly on top of oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded. It should be primarily useful to the following groups:
- Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
bridge / switch).
- Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)
Dependencies
This layer depends on:
URI: git://github.com/openembedded/openembedded-core.git branch: master revision: HEAD
For some recipes, the meta-oe layer is required:
URI: git://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded.git subdirectory: meta-oe branch: master revision: HEAD
URI: git://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded.git subdirectory: meta-python branch: master revision: HEAD
Maintenance
Please see the MAINTAINERS file for information on contacting the maintainers of this layer, as well as instructions for submitting patches.
