Julien Stephan 8934057ce8 externalsrc: fix task dependency for do_populate_lic
do_populate_lic dependencies are defined inside license.bbclass such as:

  addtask populate_lic after do_patch before do_build

but externalsrc deletes the do_patch task, so the only dependency left for
do_populate_lic is "before do_build"

On a devtool context, when doing devtool modify, sources are extracted inside
build/workspace/sources/${BPN}/ and local files inside
build/workspace/sources/${BPN}/oe-local-files

When building the recipe after a devtool modify, do_unpack is called again to
unpack (possibly modified) local files from
build/workspace/sources/${BPN}/oe-local-files into ${WORKDIR}.

Since the only left dependency for do_populate_lic is do_build, the
do_populate_lic can be called BEFORE do_unpack. Most of the time this is not a
problem, because license files are generally located inside ${S}, which
corresponds to build/workspace/sources/${BPN} (and is already unpacked),
but this can lead to an issue if recipe sets LIC_FILES_CHKSUM to look for
files in ${WORKDIR} (example from init-ifupdown_1.0.bb):

  LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://${WORKDIR}/copyright;md5=3dd6192d306f582dee7687da3d8748ab"

So devtool modify init-ifupdown && bitbake init-ifupdown gives the following
error:

  WARNING: init-ifupdown-1.0-r0 do_populate_lic: Could not copy license file <...>/build/tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/init-ifupdown/1.0/copyright to <...>/build/tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/init-ifupdown/1.0/license-destdir/qemux86_64/init-ifupdown/copyright: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '<...>/build/tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/init-ifupdown/1.0/copyright'
  ERROR: init-ifupdown-1.0-r0 do_populate_lic: QA Issue: init-ifupdown: LIC_FILES_CHKSUM points to an invalid file: <...>/build/tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/init-ifupdown/1.0/copyright [license-checksum]
  ERROR: init-ifupdown-1.0-r0 do_populate_lic: Fatal QA errors were found, failing task.
  ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: <...>/build/tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/init-ifupdown/1.0/temp/log.do_populate_lic.838584
  ERROR: Task (<...>/poky/meta/recipes-core/init-ifupdown/init-ifupdown_1.0.bb:do_populate_lic) failed with exit code '1'

Fix this by forcing the do_populate_lic task to run after do_unpack

Poky

Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for IDE integration.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.

As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.

The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/

OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.

Contribution Guidelines

Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.

Where to Send Patches

As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:

OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):

BitBake (files in bitbake/):

Documentation (files in documentation/):

meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):

If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
