Yocto 4.9.88_2.0.0 build fails with package_ipk enabled

[sergei_p]

Hello,

Enabling "package_ipk" in PACKAGE_CLASSES in local.conf makes the yocto build for imx8mqevk fail in the linux-imx recipe:

...

Subprocess output:
kernel-module-xt-conntrack-4.9.88-imx_4.9.88_2.0.0_ga+g5e23f9d61147
*** Error: Package name contains illegal characters, (other than [a-z0-9.+-])

My build configured as "MACHINE=imx8mqevk DISTRO=fsl-imx-xwayland source ./fsl-setup-release.sh -b build-20180610"

How this could be fixed?

Regards,

Sergei

Hi Sergei,

You are using a diff kernel image than the iMX8M, please work in L4.9.88_1.0.0.

Hello Alfred,

I'm confused. I'm using the exact build configuration as provided by the NXP Release documentation https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=L4.9.88_2.0.0_LINUX_DOCS&Parent_nodeId=13376994810717061... . I'm initializing the repositories for the build as:

repo init -u https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-manifest -b imx-linux-rocko -m imx-4.9.88-2.0.0_ga.xml

repo sync

Why would I work with a different release?

Please clarify.

Thanks!

Regards,

Sergei

I am getting the exact same error with the ipk of the imx kernel:

kernel-module-snd-hwdep-4.9.88-imx_4.9.88_2.0.0_ga+g5e23f9d
*** Error: Package name  contains illegal characters, (other than [a-z0-9.+-])

Hi Phil,

We worked around this by adding "_" to the name validity check in opkg-build, here is the patch:
