How to report bug in your bitbake recipe?

I don’t know where to write this so I’m writing here.

I’m building Linux Open Embedded/Yocto image version V2.7 for Colibri T20. It worked fine until I encountered error in configure phase of linux-toradex bitbake recipe (linux-toradex_git.bb).

Turns out recipe uses pushd and popd shell commands.

My distro of choice is Debian 8. Default shell on Debian is dash which don’t understand bash specific commands like popd or pushd.

I think if bitbake executes commands inside /bin/sh shell you shouldn’t assume that shell is bash.

There is a readme in meta-toradex-tegra ;-). However the community can be used as well.

You are not the first to report this. It is fixed in morty-next.

We here at Toradex believe that using dash on a system used for development is asking for this kind of trouble, so we recommend e.g. here to change to bash.
