**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Thu Oct 10 02:59:58 2013 Oct 10 08:14:59 I'm trying to follow the steps to reproduce an angstrom image and I get a huge spew of errors out from what looks like building the manuals for libc. http://paste2.org/wG5NNP7c Oct 10 08:15:28 Can anyone help me debug (or skip building the docs) on this? I'm on F19 Oct 10 10:35:03 missing hsep and vsep Oct 10 10:35:26 ask in #oe I think mismatched layers Oct 10 10:35:31 what version if angstrom? Oct 10 11:04:21 What's the best way to grab .ipk files for offline install on a board, specifically the beaglebone Oct 10 11:08:09 wget? Oct 10 11:10:01 Crofton|work, I was going to do that - is there a tool/script to generate a local Packages.gz? Oct 10 11:10:44 in oe classic I would bitbake package-index or something like that Oct 10 11:10:46 not sure about now Oct 10 11:11:16 Hmm.. maybe I can knock up a Python script to do it Oct 10 11:11:53 there should be a way :) Oct 10 11:12:42 exosyst: bitbake package-index works with OE-Core as well Oct 10 11:13:39 bluelightning, I had to use the downloaded angstrom image as bitbake failed and gave the error I posted earlier which kinda ended my experiments in rolling it my own :( Oct 10 11:14:29 bluelightning, vsep and hsep error, it sounds familiar? Oct 10 11:14:34 exosyst: ah ok, I must have joined the channel after you posted Oct 10 11:14:44 Crofton|work: no, I'm afraid not... Oct 10 11:14:48 arg Oct 10 11:14:51 I saw it Oct 10 11:14:52 Crofton|work: google no help? Oct 10 11:14:56 they are deprecated Oct 10 11:15:14 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2002-06/msg00001.html Oct 10 11:15:53 bluelightning, I'm trying to follow the steps to reproduce an angstrom image and I get a huge spew of errors out from what looks like building the manuals for libc. http://paste2.org/wG5NNP7c <- That was the error Oct 10 11:17:12 Is ltrace not in the default Angstrom feeds anymore? Oct 10 11:17:38 I see strace at http://feeds.angstrom-distribution.org/feeds/v2012.12/ipk/eglibc/armv7a-vfp-neon/base/ but no oprofile and no ltrace :-/ Oct 10 11:18:45 exosyst: I'm not sure which version of the metadata the angstrom version you are building uses, but FWIW there have been some fixes in the stable branch for newer host texinfo versions Oct 10 11:20:00 bluelightning, I don't know enough about how OE differs from the Bitbake/Poky setup from Yocto as it was all automated by running the scripts from https://github.com/angstrom-distribution/setup-scripts/tree/master for attempting to build that image Oct 10 11:20:05 I figured that was master? Oct 10 11:20:38 can you pastebin the bit at the beginning that says what layers are used? Oct 10 11:20:39 it'll be whatever the setup scripts are configured to fetch Oct 10 11:21:55 Crofton|work, that to me? If so, what output do you need as that was all that was present in the output log Oct 10 11:22:31 bitbake outputs a summary att he start of a run Oct 10 11:23:25 ah ok Oct 10 11:24:03 Want me to kick off the build again (as my scrollback on the terminal doesn't go back that far) or is there a better way? Oct 10 11:24:22 just kickoff the build Oct 10 11:24:30 not sure if that info is logged Oct 10 11:26:04 Crofton|work, http://pastebin.com/nvGTBWD9 <- et voila Oct 10 11:26:26 slightly more than I expect you wanted but didn't want to keep having repaste Oct 10 11:28:34 thats good Oct 10 11:29:57 How come oprofile and ltrace aren't in the feeds? Is it a case of if you want it you can build it? Oct 10 11:30:51 pretty much Oct 10 11:30:56 Crofton|work, good? I'll take working over good, the scripts make it easier when it "Just Works" but can act as a barrier when trying to figure it all out :-/ Oct 10 11:31:00 but try perf top before you start using oprofile Oct 10 11:31:08 yeah I nknow Oct 10 11:31:23 So i have to build it myself but haven't got a working build environment - oh joy lol Oct 10 11:33:15 when did you clone the setup scripts Oct 10 11:35:48 I cloned and kicked it off last night GMT Oct 10 11:36:03 k Oct 10 11:36:12 and what command are you using to build Oct 10 11:36:16 I am goin gto do a run here Oct 10 11:38:04 I am following the instructions on Building Angstrom - I used MACHINE=beaglebone ./oebb.sh bitbake systemd-image Oct 10 11:38:21 I'm on F19 if that is a contributing factor (I hope it isn't though) Oct 10 11:39:01 so am I Oct 10 11:40:41 Crofton|work, cool - I used that OEAndyourDistro guide to get the packages installed and then followed the bit at the bottom of http://downloads.angstrom-distribution.org/demo/beaglebone/ Oct 10 11:44:11 I'm sure I used to be able to replace dropbear with openssh-server on the fly... there's some dependencies preventing that now :-/ Oct 10 11:44:20 Is that new and is there a way to get around it? Oct 10 11:45:02 Reason I ask is that dropbear was incompatible with using eclipse with the RSE and remote debugging Oct 10 11:50:18 Crofton|work, let me know how it goes as i'd love to be able to swap out dropbear for openssh-server and build the bits I'm missing Oct 10 11:50:40 what is annying is to do the update I had to remove the line that does that Oct 10 11:51:05 and I forget it Oct 10 11:51:16 bluelightning, ^^^ Oct 10 11:51:26 do you recall how to beat dropbear out of images? Oct 10 11:55:58 Crofton|work, IMAGE_FEATURES += "package-management ssh-server-openssh" Oct 10 11:56:09 that was from my old Yocto based system rather than pure OE Oct 10 11:56:31 that might be it Oct 10 11:56:42 put that in local.conf Oct 10 11:57:28 Yeah, that's where it was from Oct 10 11:58:05 Crofton|work, so yours is building no problems? Oct 10 11:58:19 yeah, but it takes a while to get to libs Oct 10 11:58:44 what I think happens is that the newer thing that provides hsep etc is on F19 and it has them removed Oct 10 11:59:04 hsep? Is that a tex thing? Oct 10 12:00:03 I think so Oct 10 12:00:33 I suyspect the libc is in meta-linaro and we may need a backprt to kill the need Oct 10 12:02:21 Crofton|work, Is there a workaround then? Oct 10 12:05:01 I have a toolchain from yocto that I wanted to use but just following the script provided no way to use it - If it's the meta-linaro toolchain, is there not a way to skip over buiilding from there and using my prebuilt?? Oct 10 12:07:04 do you care which version of angstrom you use? Oct 10 12:09:03 the reason I ask is I am 99% certain the problem goes away with more current meta-data Oct 10 12:12:02 Crofton|work, I'm happy with something I can replicate. My requirements are that I can get a <100MB systemd based image with opkg and openssh-server :D Oct 10 12:12:21 Oh, and the ability to generate my own packages (obvs!) Oct 10 12:12:33 so checkout the yocto1.4 branch from setup scripts Oct 10 12:12:42 hat should solve the immediate problem Oct 10 12:12:55 there is 1.5, but that is a moving target until the release really happens Oct 10 12:13:42 angstrom-v2013.06-yocto1.4 Oct 10 12:13:43 * master Oct 10 12:13:56 Crofton|work, so do I need to do anything to clean the setup? (i.e. wipe-sysroot etc or can i just bitbake systemd-image) Oct 10 12:14:18 I would rm -rf build deploy personally Oct 10 12:15:26 and ./oebb.sh update Oct 10 12:18:32 Crofton|work, it did NOT like that haha. Oct 10 12:18:50 error, or just lots of noisy wranings? Oct 10 12:18:51 I had an error but now it looks like it's going through with the update Oct 10 12:19:07 First errored. Rest are warnings Oct 10 12:19:21 what is the error? Oct 10 12:19:44 my eyes glaze over, the script prints lots of warngins, but I think it neeed to stfu Oct 10 12:20:06 yes, I know I am moving branches around Oct 10 12:20:15 the script is very defensive Oct 10 12:20:29 yeah, Lots of no such file or directory errors Oct 10 12:20:38 It got quieter the second run Oct 10 12:21:30 I see fatal branch fo exists Oct 10 12:22:30 Crofton|work, well it's parsing recipes now - I added IMAGE_FEATURES += "package-management ssh-server-openssh" Oct 10 12:22:30 IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " openssh-sftp-server kmod" - will it use ipks/opkg by default as I know poky uses rpm now Oct 10 12:23:12 rpm freaks Oct 10 12:23:42 btw perf top is a good repalcement for a lot of oprofile work Oct 10 12:41:42 I'll have a look into it Oct 10 12:41:50 I wrote a script to generate Packages.gz btw Oct 10 12:42:12 You reckon it would be a nice standalone addition Crofton|work ? Oct 10 12:43:10 I think ther is already a way Oct 10 12:46:03 https://github.com/17twenty/opkg-scanpackages Oct 10 12:46:17 well at least it's scripted now Crofton|work Oct 10 12:47:32 I need to fix a few things in it but it should be some sed work Oct 10 13:00:24 Ok, it was actually awk but it now seems to work with local files Oct 10 13:13:15 Tested and works for local.conf Oct 10 13:17:55 Crofton|work, my build seems to be getting a lot further. Thanks for your help Oct 10 13:44:13 Crofton|work, I've got a failing from the git repo at infradead (mtdutils, on a BBB with eMMC? really :D) Oct 10 13:48:45 as always check by hand Oct 10 13:48:48 maybe temp failure Oct 10 13:54:43 yeah, it's down there - checked on #mtd Oct 10 14:56:17 Crofton|work, You mentioned perf - the one provided with Angstrom seems to be focussed on messing with the framebuffer. Is it packaged under a different name? Oct 10 14:56:58 https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page Oct 10 14:57:21 I am not sure if there is a package with a simialr name Oct 10 14:58:24 perf used to be part of the kernel utils and then got split off - the perf shipped with Angstrom is wrong and just confuses things :-/ Oct 10 14:58:50 I do not even know what it is, so cannot make a judgement Oct 10 14:59:45 it's something to do reading the framebuffer (and then SIGSEGVs!) Oct 10 14:59:53 Do you know what the package for perf is called these days? Oct 10 15:00:01 *proper perf Oct 10 15:00:53 Gah, git.zytor is down now too - not a good day for uncached OE builds Oct 10 15:01:24 stupid internets Oct 10 15:17:34 why aren't PREMIRRORS helping here? Oct 10 15:20:53 not sure Oct 10 15:21:14 good question Oct 10 15:21:26 lunch time Oct 10 15:22:00 I offered to help with smoketesting this before if there's a group that handles it that I can contrib to? Oct 10 15:24:43 atm this is likely the best place Oct 10 15:33:50 I'm using the Angstrom distro on Beaglebone black. I can't seem to connect to the device by name from a windows PC. By ip works fine. From another linux computer hostname.local works, but it also can't connect to hostname. Oct 10 15:35:04 The avahi-daemon seems to be running and workng, I guess that why the .local works for mDNS Oct 10 15:35:40 I did an opkg install dhcp-client, and configured dhcpconf to add the send host-name "hostname", but that resulted in no change in behavior Oct 10 17:20:06 zytor seems to be back Oct 10 17:32:35 Crofton|work, yeah, just trying it now haha Oct 10 17:34:48 Is there any service setup to pulse/ping/wget a canary file to get the status of a website/git repo Oct 10 17:35:35 It could be a nice tool to tie in. Also, is there somewhere I can file bugs against narcissus? Oct 10 17:54:01 Aww that got really sad :( Oct 10 17:58:16 Any ideas why a Systemd image would fail to boot http://pastebin.com/i3yHJQVk Oct 10 18:01:09 looks like a bum rootfs Oct 10 18:03:41 Crofton|work, I extracted from the generated angstrom tarball Oct 10 18:04:06 does the filesystsme match on ein the kernel? Oct 10 18:04:13 huh? Oct 10 18:04:58 if you formated the card with ext4 does the kernel have such support Oct 10 18:06:18 yeah it's worked with an alt debian rootfs Oct 10 18:07:33 i extracted it, swapped over the boot directory to my kernel and dtb and tried to boot it Oct 10 19:41:59 Crofton|work I'm not sure if these things are recorded anywhere but it's worth noting that newer Angstrom/Systemd leverage CONFIG_AUTOFS4_FS as a kernel option - that's what was causing my crashes Oct 10 19:57:38 I'm slowly getting setup to run my own bbb Oct 10 19:58:17 I assume you needed to set that in the kernel config? Oct 10 20:06:35 Crofton|work, yeah - I'm using linux-dev from RobertCNelson Oct 10 20:07:30 I'm getting weird errors when trying to install packages that worked in the precompiled angstrom image -> * pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate: Packages for strace found, but incompatible with the architectures configured Oct 10 20:07:41 any ideas what I've done wrong or was their an ABI break somewhere? Oct 10 20:10:23 did you try with the kernel from OE? Oct 10 20:15:14 I did but it didn't work at the time and I have literally no idea on how to archive it up for offline usage for use in a classroom environment with no net access Oct 10 20:18:30 How do I add meta-webserver to my setup? I want to generate an ipk for sthttpd and don't know how to do it with the automated oebb.sh script calling the shots **** ENDING LOGGING AT Fri Oct 11 02:59:58 2013
