How do you get rid of it? Nov 22 12:51:30 hi, I have a funny error: "Failure expanding variable do_populate_sysroot: SyntaxError: EOL while scanning string literal (, line 8)". How can I debug a problem like that? Nov 22 13:01:01 jeroen_: do you know when recipe is throwing the error? Nov 22 13:03:08 I guess recipes-external/gcc/libgcc-external.bb, do_install between NOTE: Error during finalise and NOTE: Using umask 002 (not 22) for sstate packaging Nov 22 13:03:51 this is meta-linaro-toolchain yer? Nov 22 13:04:01 or meta-codesourcery? Nov 22 13:04:08 it is the sourcery one Nov 22 13:04:35 but without the sourcery toolchain .... ;) Nov 22 13:04:46 i see. Nov 22 13:05:24 so obviously I am doing something wrong... But can I enable some option to trace the contents of the string which cannot be parsed? Nov 22 13:05:40 where have you made your modifications? its most likely a missing '\' or closing '"' Nov 22 13:09:55 also "bitbake -p -v -D" might be able to help Nov 22 19:37:58 morning all Nov 22 20:03:28 heh Nov 22 20:03:29 gm Nov 22 20:23:49 Hey I’m stuck trying to figure out how to prevent virtual/libgl from being pulled in used. Actually it itself is ok but it’s presence causes the program trying to comple to not compile. To fix the compilation error would be very difficult. The offending package that does not compile is webkitgtk 2.8.5. Actuall I just need to disable openGL support. Nov 22 20:55:57 nrossi: thanks, I am going to bang my head against a wall ;) still haven´t found the offending string... **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Nov 23 03:00:34 2015
