[OE-core] New fetcher failure for local files

[Koen Kooi]

Hi,

Since a few days the fetcher is behaving strangely:

NOTE: package linux-omap-psp-2.6.32-r99b+gitr5fc29e7b2a76a64a739f857858ef0b98294aa155: task do_fetch: Started
ERROR: Function 'Fetcher failure for URL: 'file://defconfig'. Unable to fetch URL file://defconfig from any source.' failed

It is present:

koen at dominion:/OE/tentacle/sources/meta-texasinstruments$ find . -name "defconfig" | grep beagle
./recipes-bsp/linux/linux-omap-psp-2.6.32/beagleboard/defconfig
./recipes-bsp/linux/linux-omap/beagleboard/defconfig

The strange thing is that it will work once (e.g. bitbake console-image) but it will fail after switching TCLIBC. And once it started failing, it doesn't work for the default TCLIBC either.

What's the best way to debug this? -DDD isn't giving much clues, nor does strace :(

regards,

Koen
