A note on the problem.


Striping and removing quotes from env variables from Kconfig also solved the problem.



For quotes:

$(subst $\",,$(PTXCONF_YOUR_VARIABLE))

For whitespaces

$(strip $(PTXDIST_ YOUR_VARIABLE))

Subject: [ptxdist] install_copy not recognizing path to a file

Hi,

I'm adding a custom application into the build system and I'm having undefined issues with install_copy.
I have defined the rule as follows:

*$(MYLIB_SOURCE_LOCAL) is the path where the binaries are located. (oselas.project/build/mylib -1234)

$(STATEDIR)/mylib.targetinstall:
                @$(call targetinfo)
                @$(call install_init, mylib)
                @$(call install_fixup, mylib,PRIORITY,optional)
                @$(call install_fixup, mylib,SECTION,base)
                @$(call install_fixup, mylib,AUTHOR,"<>")
                @$(call install_fixup, mylib,DESCRIPTION,missing)

                @$(call install_copy, mylib, 0, 0, 0755, $(MYLIB_SOURCE_LOCAL)/mylib.a, /usr/lib/mylib.a)
                @$(call install_copy, mylib, 0, 0, 0755, $(MYLIB_SOURCE_LOCAL)/include/mylib.h, /usr/include/mylib.h)

                @$(call install_finish, mylib)
                @$(call touch)

When I run targetinstall I get the following error:
install file:
  src=oselas.project/build/mylib -1234
  dst=/usr/lib/libzxmlconfig.a
  owner=0
  group=0
  permissions=0755

install: omitting directory '/home/user/Workspace/oselas.project/build/mylib -1234

For some reason it doesn't append the /mylib.a to the path. Any ideas on this?
