Hi, I'm seeing warnings like " WARNING: The recipe linux-firmware is trying to install files into a shared area when those files already exist. Those files and their manifest location are: /home/ash/Store/Yocto/yocto/build/tmp/sysroots/overo/lib/firmware/whiteheat.fw Matched in manifest-overo-linux-gumstix ... " when building a core-image-minimal. It looks like the linux-firmware is getting pulled in resulting in these warnings because I have this line in my machine/overo.conf file: " ... MACHINE_EXTRA_RDEPENDS += "linux-firmware-sd8686" ... "
I added this to make sure the firmware for my wifi chip was getting installed as directed per [1] but I'm thinking that this is not correct. What is the correct way to ensure my firmware gets installed or will it anyway by virtue of the kernel being included in the build? Thanks, Ash [1] http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#var-MACHINE_EXTRA_RDEPENDS _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
