Hello,

I am seeing this error in my build:

Configuring aCollected errors:

* check_data_file_clashes: Package linux-firmware-bcm43430 wants to install file /linaro/mbl/workspace-arm/build-mbl/tmp-mbl-glibc/work/imx7s_warp-oe-linux-gnueabi/mbl-console-image-test/1.0-r0/rootfs/lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.bin

But that file is already provided by package * firmware-imx

In my build, I'm including meta-raspberrypi and meta-freescale-3rdparty in my manifest. These two meta layers include the following two files into the rootfs in various ways:

/lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.txt

/lib/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430-sdio.bin

For example, in the following files define a way of adding the firmware into the rootfs (there will be more ways they get into the build, saying as one is a .inc file):

meta-freescale-3rdparty/recipes-bsp/broadcom-nvram-config/broadcom-nvram-config.inc

meta-raspberrypi/recipes-kernel/linux-firmware/linux-firmware_%.bbappend

openembedded-core/meta/recipes-kernel/linux-firmware/linux-firmware_git.bb

My meta-layer is included after meta-freescale* and meta-raspberrypi, but before openembedded-core/meta in my BBLAYERS setup.

However, I want to provide a newer version of these two files in my build. So we created this recipe in our meta layer:

file: recipes-bsp/firmware-imx/firmware-imx_%.bbappend

}

FILES_${PN} += "${base_libdir}/firmware/brcm/brcmfmac43430*"

COMPATIBLE_MACHINE = "(imx7s-warp)"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It builds fine in a "normal" configuration. However, in a "test" build, where "dev-pkgs" is added to IMAGE_FEATURES, I get the error as above.

So how do I work around this issue? Am I doing the wrong thing by providing a bbappend to overlay these files?

Any advice appreciated.

Regards,

Ryan.
