From 7f74b6168e7d119f1bf7f1da65b1d08a60c2df5a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Yann E. MORIN" Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2020 13:44:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "package/pkg-generic.mk: create directories upfront in the configure step" This _partially_ reverts commit 2dbb0660fb4d89f8eac86fcff08e9b3d0a705917. Indeed, before 2dbb0660fb, the per-package ../host/ directory was explicitly created right before it was populated. With 2dbb0660fb, it is now created only at the beginning of the configure step. However, some packages may have download or extract host dependencies, and when we are trying to rsync them, the destination .../host/ directory does not yet exist at the download or extract steps, thus the build fails. E.g., with wget which needs host-lzip if the system does not have it yet: rsync -a --link-dest=/home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/per-package/host-lzip/host/ /home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/per-package/host-lzip/host/ /home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/per-package/wget/host rsync: mkdir "/home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/per-package/wget/host" failed: No such file or directory (2) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at main.c(682) [Receiver=3.1.3] make[1]: *** [package/pkg-generic.mk:170: /home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/build/wget-1.20.3/.stamp_extracted] Error 11 Kudos to Raphael for pin-pointing the culprit commit. Fixes: http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/4c8/4c895c7ac0a635d38f5015b5df0393581ad7b508/ and a slew of similar failures Notes: An alternative solution would be to move the creation of the directories from the configure step to the download step *and* to the rsync step, but this is not so nice in the end... Let's just ensure they are created where needed: at the configure step, and when populating them. Reported-by: Raphael Jacob Signed-off-by: Yann E.
