[meta-xilinx] Failure building attr recipe

[Alan Hughes]

I have just (very recently) been hit with a problem when bitbake attempts to build "attr" using Yocto Dizzy (1.7.1 and 1.7.2). Basically everything is fine until we hit the do_install phase; at that point we get a failure with the following messages:

 
| sed: can't read /home/stde/Projects/BSP/yocto-1.7.2/build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/attr-native/2.4.47-r0/image/home/stde/Projects/BSP/yocto-1.7.2/build/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/lib/libattr.la: No such file or directory

| ERROR: Function failed: do_install (log file is located at /home/stde/Projects/BSP/yocto-1.7.2/build/tmp/work/x86_64-linux/attr-native/2.4.47-r0/temp/log.do_install.43173)
 
Obviously the build script is looking for "libattr.la" and not finding it; when I have a look in the build directory I can find this file, but it is not being copied to the install directory.

 
At the moment I am completely stuck - can anyone give me any pointers as to what the problem is and how I can go about fixing it?

 
Thanks in advance

 
Alan
