**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Oct 23 02:59:57 2011 Oct 23 15:29:46 does anyone have a virtual machine image or liveCD or something with an already set up open embedded environment for gumstix? Oct 23 15:31:46 the amount of time i have already burned trying to get it installed on my ubuntu its beyond my downttime threshold, I want to code not spend days configuring and installing Oct 23 15:31:52 not that I know off Oct 23 15:31:59 I see, thats unfortunate Oct 23 15:33:26 well, I'll just hang around. maybe somebody knows one Oct 23 15:35:09 make one :) Oct 23 15:39:12 I want one so that I don't have to waste more time trying to get it installed, making one myself defeats that purpose Oct 23 15:39:53 I had time in high school to blow weeks on compiling a stage 1 of gentoo Oct 23 15:40:41 not these days Oct 23 15:41:33 looking into using crosstool-ng instead, if its quick and easy to get running Oct 23 15:45:59 as a sidenote- i got to roughly task 350 out ~1200 with a compile error for dbus, after already having to manually fetch zlib and alter some md5s due to mismatches for some unexplained reason Oct 23 17:21:55 hey. i'm having a strange problem with bitbake-1.12.0: I have an image with IMAGE_INSTALL="A"; A has RDEPENDS=B, which has RDEPENDS=C. However, I can see A and B in the final image, but not C Oct 23 17:24:01 however, making A RDEPENDS on B and C pulls C in the image Oct 23 17:24:08 how can this happen? Oct 23 17:25:10 CMoH: it sounds like a bug if that's really what's happening Oct 23 17:26:09 i can only think of a bug, or that the recipe for B is somehow "broken" Oct 23 17:27:01 CMoH: you don't have a require / inherit in recipe B that's setting RDEPENDS to a different value? Oct 23 17:27:18 only update-rc.d Oct 23 17:27:25 hmm Oct 23 17:27:59 I'm guessing you didn't add the RDEPENDS some time after it was built either? Oct 23 17:28:37 nope Oct 23 17:28:48 i cleaned all: image, A B and C Oct 23 17:28:53 are you able to pastebin recipe B Oct 23 17:28:55 ? Oct 23 17:30:34 http://pastebin.com/5dytKJHA Oct 23 17:31:05 however, if i run bitbake -g i can see A depending on B and B depending on C in pn-depends.dot, as well as in the other dependencies Oct 23 17:33:26 CMoH: what about the pkgdata for recipe B, does that show the dependency? Oct 23 17:33:52 pkgdata? Oct 23 17:34:20 ah, found it Oct 23 17:36:09 or did not; the only pkgdata i found only lists packages in recipes (tmp/pkgdata/...) Oct 23 17:36:15 no dependencies for any of the recipes Oct 23 17:36:47 ok, now it looks better Oct 23 17:36:50 no dependency Oct 23 17:37:06 just for update-rc.d Oct 23 17:37:38 bitbake -e B | grep \^RDEPENDS Oct 23 17:38:52 CMoH: ^ what he said Oct 23 17:39:05 RDEPENDS="media-ctl" Oct 23 17:39:14 RDEPENDS_karbon-cam-setup="update-rc.d" Oct 23 17:39:28 and there's another for the -dev package Oct 23 17:39:40 ah, right... so the second is blowing away the first Oct 23 17:39:44 unfortunate :/ Oct 23 17:39:51 ah, wait a sec Oct 23 17:40:08 hmm; weird Oct 23 17:40:11 CMoH: you need to set RDEPENDS_${PN} not just RDEPEDNS in your recipe Oct 23 17:40:27 that ought to fix it Oct 23 17:40:54 s/not just/instead of/ Oct 23 17:42:05 the weirder thing is recipe A also uses the same structure (only RDEPENDS, no RDEPENDS_${PN}), also with update-rc.d for another initscript Oct 23 17:42:23 although it is more complex, more packages etc Oct 23 17:42:36 wonder if we shouldn't inject a couple of the recipe sanity checks from recipe_sanity into something which is always run, rather than being opt-in Oct 23 17:43:05 you should never set RDEPENDS for more than one reason. as youv'e already discovered, classes will assume the package specific, but beyond that, RDEPENDS affects all packages you emit, including -dev, -doc, -dbg, which is unlikely to be what you want :) Oct 23 17:43:18 kergoth, i'd love to hear more on the sanity checks opt-in :D:D Oct 23 17:43:54 kergoth: yes, and as shown here it interacts badly with _append Oct 23 17:43:54 INHERIT += "recipe_sanity" in local.conf, then bitbake -c recipe_sanity foo -- I'm not sure if it's in oe-core/meta-oe though. just checks for some things like the rdepends/rdepends_${PN} thing Oct 23 17:44:19 bluelightning: heh, the behavior of append/prepend relative to override variables is confusing all around :\ Oct 23 17:44:26 * kergoth gets food Oct 23 17:45:12 thanks to both Oct 23 17:48:10 is it hard to migrate from 2011.03-maintenance to oe-core and meta-oe? Oct 23 17:48:49 by the way - are there any resources that describe what the difference is between these two? Oct 23 17:57:03 CMoH: http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/OpenEmbedded-Core Oct 23 17:58:55 thanks again Oct 23 18:01:58 it certainly looks cleaner that the branch we're using now Oct 23 18:05:32 however, the getting started page talks mostly of bitbake-1.8.x and what seems to me to be the old openembedded, not the oe-core Oct 23 18:05:40 why is that? Oct 23 18:07:27 i mean, is the wiki behind? or is oe-core not recommended for stable releases? Oct 23 21:27:36 anyone tried to build mdadm for powerpc recently? Oct 23 21:32:22 good nite **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Oct 24 02:59:56 2011
