For now I would like to retrieve systemd stuff such as start stop & status... what whould be the best way to do this? I see gdbus but I cannot find any of that in our layers. Another method is using python, but those don't look like gdbus one liners. What should I bedoing? Jun 12 09:23:13 pompomJuice: that's probably not a question for this channel Jun 12 09:23:46 it might be Jun 12 09:24:06 oe surely includes a dbus client? Jun 12 09:24:20 I am trying to find out which one it is Jun 12 09:24:45 dbus-send Jun 12 09:24:52 thanks Jun 12 10:22:54 dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.systemd1 /org/freedesktop/systemd1/unit/foo_2eservice org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get string:"org.freedesktop.systemd1.Unit" string:"ActiveState" Jun 12 10:23:15 if anybody was ever interested how to get properties, that command is a ! to figure out Jun 12 11:17:10 morning all Jun 12 11:20:57 gm Jun 12 11:46:02 hi crofton Jun 13 01:21:25 I've been trying to get a package ported to Yocto it fails the install. It gives me "can not create directory /usr/bin and other directories. I'm assumed that was because it is trying to install the files into the native directory. I tried setting the --prefix to ${D} and that fixed the error but then bitbake complains about using D in the recipe file. What is the correct way to resolve this issue? Jun 13 01:27:23 ;s Jun 13 02:48:44 I've been working on porting a package to Yocto, it compiles fine but when it does the install/package steps it complains about permissions on creating directories. I believe the issue is its trying to install the files on the native system instead of the target. I changed --prefix to include ${D} and that seems to fix the permissions but then bitbake complains about the recipe containing ${D}. I'm assuming this is a new insane checking ru Jun 13 02:49:42 I mean santiy not insane. that was a typo. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sat Jun 13 02:59:59 2015
