Fixed:
- Add a comment in base.bbclass:
def oe_import(d):
import sys
# Comment
bbpath = d.getVar("BBPATH").split(":")
[snip]
Note, '# Comment' is started with '#', it is legal in python's syntax
(though maybe not a good style), but bitbake reported errors:
$ bitbake -p
ERROR: ParseError at /path/to/base.bbclass:20: unparsed line: ' bbpath = d.getVar("BBPATH").split(":")'
This error report would mislead people, the real problem is that '# Comment'
is not supported, but it reports the next line, this may make it hard to debug
the code are complicated.
We can make __python_func_regexp__ handle '^#' to fix the problem, since it
already can handle blank line "^$" in a python function, so it would be pretty
safe to handle "^#" as well.

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: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
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
