I'm not sure is this is even the correct place to ask, but I'm trying to build using these instructions: 
Here is the error:
ERROR: Function failed: do_compile (log file is located at /home/philip/yocto_varsomam33/tisdk/build/arago-tmp-external-linaro-toolchain/work/cortexa8hf-vfp-neon-linux-gnueabi/input-utils/1.0-r0/temp/log.do_compile.23589) ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: /home/philip/yocto_varsomam33/tisdk/build/arago-tmp-external-linaro-toolchain/work/cortexa8hf-vfp-neon-linux-gnueabi/input-utils/1.0-r0/temp/log.do_compile.23589 Log data follows: | DEBUG: Executing shell function do_compile | NOTE: make -j 6 DESTDIR=/home/philip/yocto_varsomam33/tisdk/build/arago-tmp-external-linaro-toolchain/work/cortexa8hf-vfp-neon-linux-gnueabi/input-utils/1.0-r0/image STRIP= | Make.config:1: *** empty variable name.

Here is the offending build file:
# set the DESTDIR and the STRIP variables used by the GNUmakefile.
# The STRIP variable is set to blank or else the variable setting from OE
# is picked up as <TC>-strip and the install step sees that as another
# file to install.
EXTRA_OEMAKE = "DESTDIR=${D} STRIP=''"
do_install () {
oe_runmake install
}
I'm not sure what to do about the STRIP variable?
