Hello!
We've been encountering a problem with recent kernels (post 5.15,
since this commit [0]) which require a Python3 package called dtschema
[1] (Rob Herring is a maintainer). This is easily installed via pip3
[2] and a recipe works fine for OpenEmbedded [3], even in the ancient
Sumo we're using (well, at least everything seems to be in place).
The problem we're seeing is with the PATH set by the recipe, which has
/poky/build/tmp/hosttools/ as the last bit in it. but no reference to
the native Python (recipe-sysroot-native/usr/bin/python3-native/)
built within OE. This version of Python (3.7.3) is from the host, and
does not have the dtschema package in it (even if it's installed,
dtschema fails to run).
I have tried inheriting python3native in the kernel recipe, which
defines PYTHON and other related variables, but it still fails to use
the right python3 binary.
Is there a recommended way to get the python3-native path into the PATH?
Thanks and greetings!
