i2c-tools does not appear to be installed after adding it in local.conf


I am new to YOCTO and am trying to install the i2c-tools in an image for the Raspberry Pi 3, but I don't seem to be able to get it working.

I put CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += " i2c-tools" in the local.conf file and then build the image with bitbake "core-image-base".

But when I boot it, it doesn't seem to be installed anywhere. Am I doing something wrong here?

I have also used IMAGE_INSTALL and EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURE, but they do not work either.


Solution

  • I erased every file created when built and recompiled and it magically worked. Problem solved I guess
