It was, but using Buildroot. The version packaged in the latest stable version I was using (2018.08) is 1.14.2. Looking at the Makefile from v4l2-compliance, it looks like it just invokes git to retrieve the git commit and uses that as the hash. In Buildroot's case, since buildroot will download the tarball, this will end up returning the SHA commit of the buildroot repo building the sources, not the version of the sources themselves. I'm not sure how to address that properly though. Thomas, how do you usually deal with this? Thanks! Maxime -- Maxime Ripard, Bootlin Embedded Linux and Kernel engineering https://bootlin.com
