The arcane tomes of Git say

git submodule update

is probably the command to use here.

This would be needed to be issued where?

The root OpenROAD directory.

To summarize: we put the above statement into our OpenROAD build script. Correct?

Uh, are you cloning from scratch or are you `git pull`ing?

Clone from scratch, as we build our Docker image.

That's interesting. Um.

git submodule update --init

then.

I'll check.

You could send me the Dockerfile, I'd be happy to take a look

The recursive is in, here‘s the Best regards build script: https://github.com/hpretl/iic-osic-tools/blob/main/images/openroad/scripts/install.sh

Ah, okay. Your problem here is the

git checkout ${OPENROAD_REPO_COMMIT}

. By doing that, you take the OpenROAD repo out of sync with the submodule.

Oh, didn't know that. Good to know, we need to check all our scripts then which use submodules. Thanks a lot!!!

Cheers
