We've seen a number of mystery failures where task B would run despite task A, its dependency not having run. An example would be do_compile when do_unpack didn't run. This has been tracked down to this code block. In theory it shouldn't trigger however it can and has due to bugs elsewhere. When it does, it causes significant weird failures and possible build corruption. Change the code to abort the build. This avoids any chance of corruption and should ensure the issues get reported, putting an end to the weird build failures. There may be some cases where this triggers and it shouldn't, we'll work through those as they arise and are identified.

Bitbake
=======
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run
efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints.
One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software
stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website:
http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated
html version at the Yocto Project website:

Please refer to
http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded
for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended
for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org)
but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send
the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current
branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
