Builds on yocto will fail (do_install: will not overwrite just-created)

[Tae-Young Kwon]

I am trying to upgrade the hplip version of meta-openembedded.

I am using hplip as yocto.
        yocto: https://www.yoctoproject.org/
hplip is included in meta-openembedded and the current version is 3.12.6.
        hplip(meta-openembedded): http://cgit.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded/tree/meta-oe/recipes-extended/hplip/hplip_3.12.6.bb?h=master
I am going to upgrade my recipe to 3.18.6.

However, in the do_install step, the following error occurs.

The attachment do_install_log.txt is a full log.

I have verified the version of hplip by subdividing it.
Up to 3.17.10 is compiled and error starts from 3.17.11.
From 3.17.10 to 3.17.11, I tried to find the cause by testing in commit units.
However, there is no such source for users like me.

When manually cross-compiling hplip without using yocto, the error did not occur.
Is there a good way to resolve this error?

I'm sorry I do not have enough English.

I have debugged comparing 3.17.10 and 3.17.11.
hplip-3.17.11 added createPPD.sh.

In yocto, build through the following steps.
        do_fetch -> de_unpack -> do_configure -> do_compile -> do_install
It looks like you are running createPPD.sh in the do_compile (make) step.
createPPD.sh edits cups_drv.inc.

The odd thing is that when createPPD.sh is run, "ppd/hpcups/*.ㅔpd.gz" is added to the cups_drv.inc file.
cups_ppd_printers = \
   ppd/hpcups/*.ppd.gz \
   ppd/hpcups/apollo-2100.ppd.gz \
   ppd/hpcups/apollo-2150.ppd.gz \
   ppd/hpcups/apollo-2200.ppd.gz \
   ppd/hpcups/apollo-2500.ppd.gz \
"ppd/hpcups/*.ppd.gz" is also added to the Makefile.

This causes the "ppd/hpcups/*.ppd.gz" file to be created in the ppd folder in the do_install step.

I have modified createPPD.sh to solve this problem.
Remove the text "ppd/hpcups/*.ppd.gz" from the cups_drv.inc file.
