xf86-input-evdev is trying to install files into a shared area when those
files already exist. Those files and their manifest location are:

10-evdev.conf was moved from xserver-xorg to to the driver. If you are
using krogoth, xserver-xorg really should be new enough (>=1.18.0) to not
install the file. Does meta-toradex maybe provide an older xorg?

> The build has stopped as continuing in this scenario WILL break things,
if not now, possibly in the future (we've seen builds fail several months
later). If the system knew how to recover from this automatically it would
however there are several different scenarios which can result in this and
we don't know which one this is. It may be you have switched providers of
something like virtual/kernel (e.g. from linux-yocto to linux-yocto-dev),
in that case you need to execute the clean task for both recipes and it
will resolve this error. It may be you changed DISTRO_FEATURES from systemd
to udev or vice versa. Cleaning those recipes should again resolve this
error however switching DISTRO_FEATURES on an existing build directory is
not supported, you should really clean out tmp and rebuild (reusing sstate
should be safe). It could be the overlapping files detected are harmless in
which case adding them to SSTATE_DUPWHITELIST may be the correct solution.
It could also be your build is including two different conflicting versions
of things (e.g. bluez 4 and bluez 5 and the correct solution for that would
be to resolve the conflict. If in doubt, please ask on the mailing list,
sharing the error and filelist above.
> ERROR: xf86-input-evdev-2_2.10.1-r0 do_populate_sysroot: If the above
message is too much, the simpler version is you're advised to wipe out tmp
and rebuild (reusing sstate is fine). That will likely fix things in most
(but not all) cases.
