[OE-core] [PATCH v5 05/10] bitbake.conf: add ip and scp to HOSTTOOLS unconditionally

[Markus Lehtonen]

Hi,

I do not run any runtime tests, I just use the available library functions to run python profiling task on the device. No changes to local.conf are / should be required.

Cheers,
  Markus

    I ran into something very similar. When using 'TEST_IMAGE = 1' (which
    uses testimage-auto), the conditional in bitbake.conf doesn't work and 
    ip and ping are not available in tmp/hosttools.
    
    When using just 'INHERIT += "testimage"' the conditional works but the 
    tests are not run automatically.
    
    If I use both 'TEST_IMAGE = 1' and 'INHERIT += "testimage"' together,
    the hosttools are found and the tests are run successfully.
    
    This is unexpected because classes/testimage-auto.bbclass does contain
    'inherit testimage'.
    
    What config options are you putting in local.conf to trigger the tests?
