**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Oct 20 02:59:58 2013 Oct 20 03:56:22 I know this has to be somewhere, but I'm not finding it. I remember seeing a long time ago how to send in contributions, but I can't find it now. Where is the how to contribute document? I have a few small changes I would like to give back. I have (in theory) access to poky-contrib already, just need to know what to send where. Oct 20 06:00:32 hello. tell me how to minimize the size of the firmware image containing qt4? / usr / bin / qtopia takes about 50 mb. How to Fix a recipe? Oct 20 07:04:07 take things out you don't need? That's a bit generic of a question. Oct 20 07:06:51 but at a stab: are you using static linking? Oct 20 07:09:59 also, qt is very heavy. It's a do everything framework. It won't get down to a tiny footprint. Oct 20 08:38:56 * nerdboy salutes his hand-built armv7a gnat-gcc Oct 20 08:39:14 should also be doable in a recipe... Oct 20 17:25:48 heh, we used to run qtopia on 16 mb of flash, 50 does sound excessive Oct 20 20:33:25 anyone know what I have to include in my image to get compiler support on the target board? Oct 20 20:41:29 brm_: if you're using danny (1.4) or newer you can install packagegroup-core-buildessential Oct 20 20:43:36 bluelightning: I am using dylan Oct 20 20:46:33 bluelightning: Thanks, found it Oct 20 20:56:51 after changing a recipe, how can i make sure a build gets re-run? Oct 20 20:59:01 BCMM: under most circumstances the build system can detect changes and re-run tasks as necessary Oct 20 21:02:25 bluelightning: if i create a bbappend corresponding to a bb from another layer, does that count as "most circumstances"? Oct 20 21:02:56 BCMM: if the bbappend changes variables within the recipe, it should yes Oct 20 21:23:08 bluelightning: thanks Oct 20 21:23:27 turns out the real problem is that my function doesn't actually seem to have any effect, probably because it's running at the wrong time Oct 20 21:24:09 how exactly do _prepend and _append functions work? what happens if there is more than one of them? Oct 20 21:24:43 BCMM: they just stack up Oct 20 21:24:51 bluelightning: in what order? Oct 20 21:25:28 in the order they're parsed... if you have them spread across multiple bbappends it'll be in layer priority order from lowest to highest Oct 20 21:26:03 highest priority runs last, for both appends and prepends? Oct 20 21:26:52 last for appends, first for prepends Oct 20 21:27:23 ah. now i'm kind of stuck Oct 20 21:28:01 so, what are you trying to achieve exactly? Oct 20 21:28:29 i'm trying to modify the kernel config for the raspberry pi, but the BSP layer has a linux.inc which does `echo "" > ${S}/.config` in its do_configure_prepend() Oct 20 21:28:41 which as far as i can see is always going to overwrite anything i do... Oct 20 21:29:09 bluelightning: i'm trying to change the config the raspberry pi kernel builds with, and i'm using djwillis's BSP layer for the pi Oct 20 21:29:35 just trying to add some simple stuff like initramfs support Oct 20 21:29:52 BCMM: FYI, if you mean the djwillis version on github, that is no longer maintained AFAIK; the current version is on git.yoctoproject.org Oct 20 21:30:01 bluelightning: thanks Oct 20 21:31:44 bluelightning: thanks! last commit does appear to be 2 months ago. is this http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-raspberrypi/ a derivative of the one i've been using? should it be basically a drop-in replacement? Oct 20 21:32:18 it should be a drop-in replacement I believe, since it's a continuation of djwillis's one Oct 20 21:33:45 bluelightning: so has it moved because it's now an official BSP or something? Oct 20 21:34:00 I wouldn't call it official by any means Oct 20 21:34:53 AIUI djwillis handed over the reins to Andrei Gerzhan and he decided to move it to yoctoproject.org Oct 20 21:36:00 bluelightning: seems to me that the last commit on the yoctoproject repo is the same one as on github... Oct 20 21:36:22 could be that they're kept in sync; they certainly weren't at one point Oct 20 21:36:42 I can tell you the definitive source is the one on yoctoproject.org Oct 20 21:39:44 bluelightning: there is this one, which seems to actually be maintained https://github.com/sarnold/meta-raspberrypi **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Oct 21 02:59:58 2013
