while trying to update u-boot

I found the following code in u-boot.inc

if not d.getVar("UBOOT_MACHINE", True):
PN = d.getVar("PN", True)
FILE = os.path.basename(d.getVar("FILE", True)) bb.debug(1, "To build %s, see %s for instructions on \
setting up your machine config" % (PN, FILE))
raise bb.parse.SkipPackage("because UBOOT_MACHINE is not set")

and while I don't have UBOOT_MACHINE set, u-boot still follows with no problems through do_fetch, do_configure, do_compile and so on, and finishes without any problem/error. I would have expected to be skipped as the above code snipped would imply, but I cannot find that log message anywhere (nor any error to indicate failure). Can somebody point me in the right direction with this?

Are you sure that variable is not set somewhere? Gave it a try on a machine with no u-boot defined:

ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'u-boot'
ERROR: u-boot was skipped: because UBOOT_MACHINE is not set
ERROR: u-boot was skipped: because UBOOT_MACHINE is not set
ERROR: u-boot was skipped: because UBOOT_MACHINE is not set

Sorry, my bad, I was trying to build u-boot-fw-utils and assumed wrongly
that the recipe requires u-boot.inc

It happens. No problem.
