[yocto] Simple recipe quit working in dizzy

[Jim Rafert]

Hi all,

The following recipe, spectra-postbuild_0.1.bb, quit working when I ported from 1.6 daisy to 1.7.1 dizzy.  I include the recipe in my image by adding it at the end of of the IMAGE_INSTALL_append variable in my local.conf file.  The purpose of the recipe is simply to lay down some files that will later be used by an installer script.  Two if the files are deposited in the root directory, and the rest are placed in the /install/spectra directory, which is created by the recipe.  Nothing is compiled or transformed in any way.

When I bitbake the recipe, then bitbake core-image-full-cmdline, both complete without errors.
When I look at the contents of the rpm file produced by the recipe, all the files and directories are listed.
However, when I examine the file system images created, only the two files that I place in the root directory (/) are there, and the entire /install directory hierarchy is missing.
If I modify the recipe such that the missing files are placed in a directory that is already created by other recipes (/home/root), all the files are deposited as expected.

I have looked at section 5.6 of the Yocto reference manual, "Moving to the Yocto Project 1.7 Release", but did not see anything that was obviously relevant.

Can someone tell me how to fix this for dizzy?
