[linux-yocto] ${S} variable resists being set in recipe

[Sullivan, California L]

Ah, try capitalizing workdir, i.e.:

S = "${WORKDIR}"

I was able to reproduce your warning and error by changing WORKDIR to workdir in a recipe I am using, so hopefully this fixes your problem.

I tried that before.  Here are the results:

Hi Rob,

I am not an expert, but I believe you want:

S = "${workdir}"

All,

I'm having a problem with a recipe.  It runs without error, but doesn't build the code, and it doesn't deploy the artifacts.  It also give a warning that S must be set properly.  Here is my recipe.

DESCRIPTION = "Gstreamer plugin provided by RidgeRun to decrypt videos on the fly, static or streaming."
SECTION = "Digecor gstreamer"

LICENSE = "closed"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING;md5=cb8aedd3bced19bd8026d96a8b6876d7"<file://COPYING;md5=cb8aedd3bced19bd8026d96a8b6876d7><file://COPYING;md5=cb8aedd3bced19bd8026d96a8b6876d7><file://COPYING;md5=cb8aedd3bced19bd8026d96a8b6876d7>

${S} = "${workdir}"
#SRC_URI = "file://gst-crypto_0.10.0.orig.tar.gz"<file://gst-crypto_0.10.0.orig.tar.gz><file://gst-crypto_0.10.0.orig.tar.gz><file://gst-crypto_0.10.0.orig.tar.gz>
SRC_URI = "file://gst-crypto-0.10.0.mod.tar.gz"<file://gst-crypto-0.10.0.mod.tar.gz><file://gst-crypto-0.10.0.mod.tar.gz><file://gst-crypto-0.10.0.mod.tar.gz>

DEPENDS = "autoconf gettext pkgconfig"

do_unpack() {
cd ..
rm -rf ./gst-crypto-0.10.0
}
do_install() {
        install -m 0755 -d ${S}/libgstcrypto.so ${D}/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10 }

It doesn't matter what I change the S variable to, it always installs in tmp/work/nv8-poky-linux-gnueabi/gst-crypto/0.10.0-r0/, but bitbake gst-crypto -c devshell always opens in tmp/work/nv8-poky-linux-gnueabi/gst-crypto/0.10.0-r0/gst-crypto-0.10.0/, one extra directory below this.  Please help me understand what I'm doing wrong.  The tarball is unpacking correctly, but in parent directory to the one called by S.

Rob
