Yocto not fetching unzip

Yocto not fetching unzip

Hello everyone,

I am experiencing an issue with yocto-2.1.2:
I am trying to prefetch all needed sources for a certain image, let's say "my-image", by calling:

$ bitbake -c fetchall my-image

Next I am archiving the whole Yocto system (including the downloads directory) to a tar.gz file and unpack it on another system.
Now when I set BB_NO_NETWORK="1" in the local.conf and try to build using

$ bitbake my-image

the package "unzip" is missing. I can fetch it manually by temporarily switching to online build an calling

$ bitbake -c fetch unzip

However I want to be able to build completely from the generated tar.gz.

Is this a bug in Yocto or intended behavior? If it is intended: Is there a proper setting to solve this or do I have to fetch unzip manually bevor packing the archive?
Thanks in advance!


Kind regards,

Jonas

I you built image on the machine where fetchall was done, do you see it
building unzip ?

You don't mention how you are using unzip.

If you are including unzip in your image then failing to download it
during fetchall is unexpected and sounds like a bug.

If you're not including unzip in your image but instead your build
actually depends on unzip-native (ie a tool to run on the host and
needed as a build dependency if a recipe you build contains .zip or
.jar files in SRC_URI) then I'm not sure what the expectation is. If
fetchall doesn't download these indirect -native dependencies then it
might just be the way it is. If so, then manually running "bitbake -c
fetch unzip-native" might be an appropriate solution.

Unzip is a native recipe and does not seem to be included in any image. So I guess this is just the way Yocto is dealing with native recipes.
So I'll have to stick with the manual fetching.
Thanks!
