[yocto] Creating a recipe for python3-pillow

[Oliver Westermann]

 Hey,

I'm fiddeling around with yocto. I want to move some python stuff onto an
embedded board and use the nxp mx8 yocto. Everything worked as expected
until now, I was able to create yocto recipes for python modules like
pyv4l2 (is there any interest for recipes like these to be commited to
meta-python?).

Now I wanted to install pillow for some image manipulation, but whereas
other python module recipes worked fine, this one fails and I don't
understand why.

Yocto reports missing setuptools:

Log data follows:
| DEBUG: Executing shell function do_configure
| NOTE: make clean
| python setup.py clean
| Traceback (most recent call last):
|   File "setup.py", line 22, in <module>
|     from setuptools import Extension, setup
| ImportError: No module named setuptools

I've googled around and everything suggests that inherit setuptools3 is
missing, but it's present in my recipe. This is my python3-pillow_5.2.0.bb:

SUMMARY = "Pillow (The friendly PIL fork)"
HOMEPAGE = "http://python-pillow.org/"
LICENSE = "EPLv1"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://LICENSE;md5=c6379001ecb47e2a0420c40177fc1125"

SRC_URI[md5sum] = "52d93a34f4180abcff04876f23eaa9b9"

PYPI_PACKAGE = "Pillow"

inherit pypi setuptools3

BBCLASSEXTEND = "native nativesdk"

Any idea whats missing or what I am doing wrong (other than that the
license line is incorrect)?

Best regards, Olli
