This clearly indicates that the issue is that the build is looking for setup.py in the ${B} location, but it is only present in the ${S} location when `devtool modify` has been run. I have tried setting ${B} to ${S} explicitly in the recipe, but this doesn't result in ${B} being changed when I run `bitbake -e mytool`. I could always copy ${S} to ${B} in the recipe, but that seems a bit hack-ish.Did I miss something or is there another way that Python builds are intended to work?
I think this might be a limitation of setuptools: they do not support out-of-tree builds (which is a must for devtool modify'). If you can figure out how to solve it, that would be nice!
