Aug 17 10:22:28 LetoThe2nd: yes and yes Aug 17 11:13:38 koen: ok and ok then! Aug 17 16:12:29 Is this the right place to ask questions about bitbake? Aug 17 16:13:10 it's as good a place as any, ask away Aug 17 16:16:10 I am trying to run the hello world example from appendix a of the bitbake manual. When I run `bitbake helloWord`, I get "Please use a locale setting which supports utf-8". I have done a bit of digging and it seems that this message is being produced by bitbake-worker. I modified that program slightly to see what sys.getfilesystemencoding() is returning and it is 'ascii'. What is weird is that when I launch Aug 17 16:16:12 /usr/bin/env python3 manually and then call that function, I get 'utf-8'. Any ideas? Aug 17 16:23:21 hmm, not sure. Does env give you a different environment than you are running bitbake from? what if you invoke python3 directly without env? Aug 17 20:47:29 joshuagl: In all cases, the python that is running is version 3.4.2 Aug 17 20:48:46 Running "python3" or "/usr/bin/env python3" results in the same response of 'utf-8' from sys.getfilesystemencoding() Aug 17 20:48:57 I don't understand why bitbake sees 'ascii' Aug 17 20:55:48 It seems that the error message I am hitting was introduced rather recently: http://lists.openembedded.org/pipermail/bitbake-devel/2016-June/007538.html\ Aug 17 20:55:57 ignore that trailing backslash Aug 17 23:28:35 My problem goes away when I switch to a slightly earlier version of bitbake which runs on python 2. Is RP == Richard Purdie? I believe commit d0f904d (made by Richard Purdie) to bitbake is the one that causes bitbake to not work for me. **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Aug 18 02:59:58 2016
