[oe] Problems building gdb-cross-sdk

Mon Aug 2 13:06:16 UTC 2010

Hello,

I am running in strange problems while building gdb-cross-sdk.

If I run bitbake gdb-cross-sdk on exactly the same overlay/openembedded
environment on different virtual machines, I succeed on my test
VM, using my production VM I get the following error:

the production VM is drived from the test VM, so the used environment is
mostly the same.

The python routine obviously loose or mangle the ${SYSROOT_DESTDIR} and
${STAGING_DIR_TARGET} Variable, but I can't figure out why.

Instead of '//usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-nm'
it should be something  like
'/angstrom/temp/angstrom-omap3evm/work/i686-armv7a-sdk-angstrom-linux-gn
ueabi/gdb-cross-sdk-7.1-r6.0/temp' I suppose.

Has someone an idea what's going on ?
