recipetool issue with empty bbappends

recipetool issue with empty bbappends

[Sai Pavan Boddu]

Hi,

I see an issue, working with recipetool, which  basically gives error when I point out an empty bbappend file generated form recipetool itself.
Below are the steps
recipetool newappend meta-saip/ linux-xlnx
recipetool setvar -r meta-saip/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-xlnx_4.4.bbappend XSCTH_PROC "arm"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<path>/yocto/scripts/recipetool", line 116, in <module>
    ret = main()
  File "<path>/yocto/scripts/recipetool", line 107, in main
    ret = args.func(args)
  File "<path>/components/yocto/scripts/lib/recipetool/setvar.py", line 52, in setvar
    patches = [oe.recipeutils.patch_recipe_file(args.recipefile, varvalues, patch=args.patch)]
  File "<path>/yocto/meta/lib/oe/recipeutils.py", line 258, in patch_recipe_file
    if tolines[-1].strip() != '':
IndexError: list index out of range

But I don't see the error if, bbappend file has atlease one line

Regards,
B. Sai pavan

I've just reproduced this and have filed the following bug for the issue:

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9972

BTW in future for issues with recipetool / devtool could you please use the 
openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org (or yocto@yoctoproject.org if you 
prefer) since recipetool isn't part of BitBake.

Thanks,
Paul
