oelint.var.override

severity: error

Example

A = "2"

include foo.inc

A = "3"

Why is this bad?

If in between hard variable assignments an immediate variable expansion is used (:= operator) the value of A would be different at different stages of the recipe, rendering the value unpredictable

Ways to fix it

Avoid multiple hard assignments of the same variable.

A = "2"

include foo.inc

alternatively use weak assignments

A ?= "2"

include foo.inc

A = "3"
