Subject: DISTRO is set too late
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2018 11:05:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <56972bf2e66e3d979a1ce1c332594fee59e4ba8f.camel@denx.de> (raw)

I am currently porting our layer to `next`.  While doing so, I got
a build failure from c8e63614 (base-apt: Introduce base implementation):

bb.data_smart.ExpansionError: Failure expanding variable DISTRO_SUITE,
[...] triggered Exception IndexError: list index out of range

The offending line looks like this (base-apt-helper.bbclass):

DISTRO_SUITE ?= "${@ d.getVar('DISTRO', True).split('-')[1]}"

This would work perfectly if $DISTRO was already set to the distro from
multiconf, but because that seems to happen later on, $DISTRO is still
`poky` at this point.

Am I doing something wrong or does this need to be fixed upstream?
