~/rdk/build-raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid$ bitbake-layers add-layer meta-new Specified layer directory doesn't exist

its continuously showing this error, I don't understand the reason, since it showed directory doesn't exist i tried to create a directory of same name as the above mentioned layer, still its showing same error. Please help I am new to Custom Linux.

CodePudding user response：

If you want to add a new layer you will first need to create

bitbake-layers create-layer <PATH_TO_YOUR_NEW_LAYER>

bitbake-layers create-layer ../sources/meta-new

then you need to add it

bitbake-layers add-layer <PATH_TO_YOUR_NEW_LAYER> bitbake-layers add-layer ../sources/meta-new

What add-layer do is actually adding a new line in "build-raspberrypi-rdk-hybrid/conf/bblayers.conf" with the path of the new layer.
