Yocto: Unable to include pSplash

Viewed 93

Background:

I'm compiling an Image using core-image-minimal. Poky is on branch dunfell and compiling with meta-raspberrypi.

I've removed the references to psplash within meta-raspberrypi.

When adding:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append += " psplash"
IMAGE_FEATURES += " splash"
SPLASH = " psplash-default"

to my local.conf. However, the image is not populated with /usr/bin/psplash, resulting in the error:

psplash-start.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /usr/bin/psplash: No such file or directory

There is a line in psplash_git.bb that looks suspicious to me, but removing it results in a scriplet error on compile:

rm -f ${D}${bindir}/psplash

Interesting when checking the ./tmp directory, I can see that the binary has actually compiled, it is just not copied to the sysroot.

Has anyone had experience with this? Am I doing something very wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help.
