oelint.var.srcuriwildcard

severity: error

Example

In my-recipe_1.0.bb

SRC_URI = "file://*"

Why is this bad?

File wildcards are discouraged, as bitbake might not see changes to the directory, thus missing out on rebuilds.

Ways to fix it

Use a fixed list of files

SRC_URI = "file://file1 file://file2"
