[yocto] Sumo distro problem with dhcp packet?

[Zoran Stojsavljevic]

Hello Kosta and others,

I am a bit behind on a schedule on this one. Albeit I followed the
advise, This does work for compiling and adding all these packages to
the ROOTFS. I see that after I added all them, I see the
initramfs.tar.xz expanded in
...poky/build/tmp/deploy/image/beagleboneblack/ directory.

But after I do the testing with initramfs, with all these packages
added. I do not find anything in the ROOTFS even what it should be
lookalike DHCP.

After trying # which dhclient, or # which dhcp-client, or # which
dhcp... It finds nothing!

Then, the next step was to find /etc/dhcp/ or similar. There is
nothing lookalike dhcp/ or dhcp* in /etc, which shows that these lines
in dhcp.inc recipe are not executed:

do_install_append () {
       install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d
       install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/default
       install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/dhcp
       install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/init-relay ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d/dhcp-relay
       install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/default-relay
${D}${sysconfdir}/default/dhcp-relay
       install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/init-server
${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d/dhcp-server
       install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/default-server
${D}${sysconfdir}/default/dhcp-server

       rm -f ${D}${sysconfdir}/dhclient.conf*
       rm -f ${D}${sysconfdir}/dhcpd.conf*

In addition, when I execute: $ bitbake -c cleanall dhcp, it says that
it executes thee tasks, and none of them are actually executed (0
executed).

I also recompiled form scratch the whole sumo BBB build, but this did
NOT solve the problem.

Any hint how I should proceed?

Thank you,
Zoran
