oelint.vars.unpackdir

severity: error

Example

S = "${WORKDIR}"

Why is this bad?

Recently upstream changed the way sources are unpacked/refreshed on changes of the SRC_URI inputs. Unpacking in WORKDIR makes it impossible to determine what is a new resource and what might be a left-over from a previous run. Hence UNPACKDIR was introduced - users should refrain from using WORKDIR for S.

Ways to fix it

S = "${UNPACKDIR}"
