[oe-users] BBFILES seems to be ignored.

[Eldon Hiebert]

Thanks for the input Henry,

I have BBPATH defined as expressed in the wiki:

[ehiebert at localhost build]$ echo $BBPATH
/home/ehiebert/Develop/oe/build/conf:/home/ehiebert/Develop/oe/build:/home/ehiebert/Develop/oe/org.openembedded.dev

BitBake also first complains about:

[ehiebert at localhost build]$ bitbake
ERROR: Please set the 'CACHE' variable.

If I don't set the CACHE variable in my .bashrc file... which should not
need to be done.

It still seems like BitBake is not finding its conf files.

TIA,
Eldon.
