How do I customize Arago busybox default configuration in my arago-custom overlay?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM1808

The question is: "How do I create a custom overlay that over-rides the default configuration in arago/recipes/busybox/busybox-1.13.2 ?"

I'm using SDK 5.02 . . .

The target is TI's reference board w/ AM1808 (PDLogic).

 

I've added the same type of overlay (compared to arago/recipes/busybox...) in my arago-custom/recipes/busybox/busybox-1.13.2 along with my own arago-custom/recipes/tasks/task-arago-base.bb

My amend.inc has PR_append = "-egc1" (as opposed to -arago-3) and there is my custom defaultconfig file that adds pkill to busybox.

However, bitbake just does not see my customization recipe for busybox.

I have a number of other customizations that work very well in my arago-custom overlay, but this recipe just does not work, and continues to elude me.

What gets built is the arago busybox -arago3 version and not my -egc1 version. It is like -egc1 recipe is invisible to bitbake.

I hate to go into the arago busybox recipe and hack on the busybox config file there.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks,

Jeff Franks

 

  • Jeffrey,

    I would recommend posting this to the arago-devel@gforge.ti.com mailing list.  I'm not clear on exactly why you are experiencing this issue, but I know others on that list have done similar operations in the past.

    The only suggestions i can give would be to check that your FILESPATHBASE and FILESPATHPKG have the path that your amend.inc file is located at.  This is how the amend file is found and parsed.
