Hello,

Thank you for reaching out with your question. The error you’re encountering suggests that the COPYING file, necessary for license verification, is missing from your build environment. This file is crucial for confirming the software’s license during the build process.

Here are some steps you can take to address this issue:

  1. Verify the Source Repository: Check the repository specified in your SRC_URI to ensure the COPYING file is present. You can do this by manually cloning the repository and examining its directory structure.

  2. Check the SRC_URI: Ensure that the SRC_URI in your recipe correctly points to the repository and branch where the COPYING file should exist. If the file is missing from the specified branch, consider switching to a different branch or tag where the file is available.

  3. Update the Recipe: If the COPYING file is located in a different directory within the repository, update the LIC_FILES_CHKSUM in your recipe to point to the correct location of the COPYING file.

  4. Check for Updates: Look for any updates or patches to the meta-toradex-nxp layer or the specific recipe that might resolve this issue. Recent changes might have affected the location or presence of the COPYING file.

  5. Consult the Logs: Review the log file mentioned in the error message (log.do_populate_lic) for additional details that might provide more context on why the file is missing.

By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the issue with the missing COPYING file in your Yocto build process.

I hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
