| Hi,
| lately the following copy operation has been added to autotools.bbclass:
|
| # Otherwise libtool wasn't used, and lib/ can be copied
| # directly.
| echo "cp -fpPR ${STAGE_TEMP}/${libdir}/* ${STAGING_LIBDIR}"
| cp -fpPR ${STAGE_TEMP}/${libdir}/* ${STAGING_LIBDIR}
|
| I have trouble with this and a package that creates an empty ${libdir}.
| Shell globbing (*) wont find a file and instead tries to copy a file
| named "*" ... and fails and so does my built.
|
| I would like to replace this with the following lines which uses find
| and is more robust:
|
| # (The find command handles an empty ${STAGE_TEMP/${libdir} correctly)
| echo "find ${STAGE_TEMP}/${libdir} -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -exec cp
| -fpPR {} ${STAGING_LIBDIR}" \;
|
| find ${STAGE_TEMP}/${libdir} -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -exec cp -fpPR {}
| ${STAGING_LIBDIR} \;
|
| Ok for commit?

or use:

autotools_stage_dir ${STAGE_TEMP}/${libdir} ${STAGING_LIBDIR}

regards,

Koen
