**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed Apr 12 03:00:01 2017 Apr 12 04:10:39 ndec: I know, I pushed it there for testing purpose. it could have even been a gist or pastie. Apr 12 11:22:45 when i run a devshell, it seems like it runs in fakeroot mode? whoami returns "root". when I try to git clone something, git tries to read ssh keys from /home/root, which is incorrect. Why does this happen? my HOME environment is still setup to my real homedir inside my devshell Apr 12 11:23:47 whats even more weird is that there is no /home/root, my real root homedir is in /root Apr 12 12:18:12 mago1: devshell mode is for debug purpose Apr 12 12:25:09 what I'd like sometimes is something akin to scratchbox. a chroot environment set up by OE, where I can build my stuff in a straightforward way. this is useful when I dont want to build a package but just want to build the code right now, for example because I want to try it out (and manually copy the binaries), or because I am currently developing it. Apr 12 12:26:13 I can achieve something similar with a trick. I build some dummy package with -c devshell, and then use the devshell. but it requires me to build some recipe - I can't start the devshell on its own. Apr 12 12:31:56 mago1: it's running under pseudo Apr 12 12:34:03 dv_: surely the closest thing to that is the SDK Apr 12 12:34:51 on the other end of the scale there is devtool (and in particular devtool add), but that's much more concrete than what you're describing Apr 12 13:54:44 What about this bugfix: https://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/129527/? Is there a chance, that this will be added to oe at some point? Apr 12 13:55:34 We're experiencing this very problem with morty and Ubuntu 14.04 and it's quite annoying **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu Apr 13 03:00:03 2017
