[OE-core] Question about native recipes

[chris.laplante at agilent.com]

Hi Khem,

I see now, thanks! I was using “du -hd1” to individually check the size of two recipe ‘work’ directories. But by checking them both with “du -sh” I see they are indeed saving space via hard links. Thanks!

Chris

Hello,

Suppose I have a native recipe that installs a large (~1 – 2 GB) amount of stuff. It’s needed by about 20 or 30 recipes. I’d rather not install that 1-2 GB into every recipe’s recipe-sysroot-native, because that will consume a ton of disk space. Is there any way I can change my native recipe to install to a common location?

Recipe specific sysroot uses hard links to a commons location isn’t that happening in your build

Thanks,
Chris
