**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 20 02:59:57 2011 Mar 20 04:43:01 Hello Mar 20 04:43:18 It seems linux .38 is not building the modules packages? Mar 20 04:51:08 it built now. Mar 20 04:51:10 OK Mar 20 04:51:16 my fault as it seems **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Mar 20 06:06:09 2011 **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Mar 20 06:06:31 2011 Mar 20 13:43:51 hey guys, if someone is around, I have some questions about bitbake Mar 20 13:45:05 what I'm trying to do is get a small project up & running using bitbake to drive the build Mar 20 13:46:50 I'm trying to do so without oe's configuration, and am finding little to no documentation on how to set something up Mar 20 16:19:13 hi, I've that in bug20.conf: Mar 20 16:19:15 PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-omap-hah" Mar 20 16:19:26 I'd like to change it from local.conf Mar 20 16:19:31 without touching bug20.conf Mar 20 16:19:36 what's the best way to do that Mar 20 16:19:42 adding that to local.conf didn't work: Mar 20 16:19:57 PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-bug20-linaro" Mar 20 16:19:57 MACHINE_KERNEL_PR = "r96" Mar 20 18:34:57 wow.. Mar 20 18:35:09 someone is trying to cleanup bugzilla? Mar 20 18:35:29 * Jay7 have received notification about old gpe-today bug Mar 20 18:35:59 phdeswer: ping? Mar 20 18:41:40 GNUtoo|bug20: add _local, e.g. PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel_local = "linux-bug20-linaro" Mar 20 18:41:51 ah ok Mar 20 18:41:52 that might help, not 100% sure if it also works for virtuals Mar 20 18:41:54 thanks a lot Mar 20 18:42:07 local also for the machine PR? Mar 20 19:54:05 GNUtoo|bug20: didn't see your last Q wrt PR, not really an idea on that one, I'd say: experiment! Mar 20 20:05:03 ok Mar 20 20:14:41 it seem to work Mar 20 20:14:46 and to download the newer kenrel Mar 20 21:11:43 GNUtoo|bug20: cool Mar 20 21:14:46 ah I had to do that tough Mar 20 21:15:01 bitbake -c clean linux-omap-hah Mar 20 21:15:10 in order to be able to make an image Mar 20 21:15:16 thanks a lot for the help Mar 20 21:47:37 hey guys Mar 20 21:47:53 I'm looking for some info on bitbake Mar 20 21:51:56 good nite Mar 20 21:52:53 moonchild: wrong time of week Mar 20 21:53:28 mwester-laptop: is this room usually busier during business hours? Mar 20 21:54:00 bitbake mailing list may be useful for you Mar 20 21:54:02 Weekdays, usually during EU business hours and EU evenings. Mar 20 21:54:52 I think there are many hobbyists on the channel, but apparently they have lives outside of OE on weekends... I don't understand how this is ;) Mar 20 21:55:42 what I'm looking for is a small example project that uses bitbake, without all of the OE infrastructure Mar 20 21:57:06 I really don't know what uses bitbake besides OE Mar 20 21:57:09 Well, this channel is devoted to OE, but since AFAIK there is no #bb channel, I expect its the most likely place to find the BB devs, if they are in fact on IRC at all. Like Jay7 said, try the BB ML instead - -probably would work better for you. Mar 20 21:57:15 moonchild: looking for this on OE channel is wrong idea then :) Mar 20 21:57:26 perhaps Mar 20 21:57:56 as mwester-laptop said, I'm not sure that there *is* a better place to ask though :) Mar 20 21:58:06 bb ML should be Mar 20 21:58:59 what I'm thinking of doing is dropping scripts from the LFS book into a bitbake framework Mar 20 21:59:10 (linux from scratch) Mar 20 21:59:18 moonchild: what is profit? Mar 20 21:59:43 however, I'm not seeing a lot of documentation that isn't centered around OE Mar 20 22:00:15 if you don't needed cross-compilation then bitbake isn't better choice because of lack of docs Mar 20 22:00:35 makefiles may be better choice there Mar 20 22:00:47 that might be the case Mar 20 22:01:13 e.g. like openwrt/pkgsrc/ports are doing Mar 20 22:01:38 I just started looking at bitbake the other night, and really haven't had much of a chance to look at what it does yet Mar 20 22:02:13 bitbake is task scheduler and executor mostly Mar 20 22:02:26 inspired by emerge Mar 20 22:02:47 having looked at the manual though, it seems that I could very easily run XSLTProc on the LFS book to extract the commands into a set of recipes Mar 20 22:03:11 Jay7: that's why it looks kinda interesting to me Mar 20 22:03:35 yeah, but documentation is limited Mar 20 22:03:44 *nod* Mar 20 22:03:46 so.. you should read code and ask developers Mar 20 22:04:02 that's on the to-do list Mar 20 22:04:18 mwester-laptop: are you still needing sheevaplug defconfig changes ? Mar 20 22:04:51 I was just hoping that someone here might be able to point me in the direction of something that could help me get to a proof-of-concept stage Mar 20 22:05:22 well.. time to reboot gateway Mar 20 22:05:46 I'll check a few times this week and ask around, but thanks for answering my questions Mar 20 22:07:49 ok, need to call it a day, need to get up early tomorrow Mar 20 22:07:58 mwester-laptop: if you need changes, please drop me an email Mar 20 22:07:59 nite all Mar 21 00:22:10 If I bitbake libpng, it installs some libraries and symbolic linnks in sysroots/. . ./usr/lib Mar 21 00:22:43 and if I do bitbake -c cleanall, it deletes most of the libraries but leaves broken symlinks, is that expected or normal? Mar 21 00:24:12 cos I think it's making a flex recipe qa_staging task crash **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Mar 21 02:59:56 2011
