Dec 31 03:02:12 <kergoth> yoctoproject.org, click on documentation
Dec 31 03:20:03 <chankit> Where can I see yocto documentation on cross compiling gcc for yocto?
Dec 31 03:20:58 <chankit> I read this but I'm quite confused
Dec 31 03:21:01 <chankit> http://clang.llvm.org/docs/CrossCompilation.html
Dec 31 03:21:49 <chankit> and this as well http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6.1/adt-manual/adt-manual.html#the-cross-development-toolchain
Dec 31 06:39:37 * mranostay pokys in
Dec 31 06:42:23 * b1tninja says something
Dec 31 07:38:23 <chankit> does anybody know who's responsible for yocto's gcc/g++ cross compile tools?
Dec 31 08:40:59 <cengkaruk> Hello..
Dec 31 08:42:27 <cengkaruk> I have problem with thermal printer connected using USB
Dec 31 08:44:06 <cengkaruk> where i can find documentation about this? lsusb detect my device id, but no one ttyUSB at /dev
Dec 31 08:44:32 <cengkaruk> I also try to create udev rules, nothing change
Dec 31 08:45:45 <cengkaruk> anyone could help me?
Dec 31 08:47:55 <chankit> cengkaruk: is the printer supported in linux?
Dec 31 08:49:40 <cengkaruk> chankit: Not sure about that, chinese's printer called "EPPOS" based on ESC/POS commands
Dec 31 08:51:19 <cengkaruk> FYI, i using yocto for Intel Galileo
Dec 31 08:52:11 <chankit> cengkaruk: you can try googlling your device name and/or the device ID to see if it's supported under linux first
Dec 31 08:52:38 <chankit> coz if it's not supported under linux most probably it won't be supported in yocto
Dec 31 08:53:01 <chankit> bluelightning: do you know who makes gcc cross compiler for yocto?
Dec 31 08:53:49 <cengkaruk> Okay
Dec 31 08:54:09 <chankit> cengkaruk: just my 2 cents
Dec 31 08:55:14 <cengkaruk> chankit: Haha. thanks. I also will try to use this[0] library
Dec 31 08:55:17 <cengkaruk> [0] https://code.google.com/p/python-escpos/wiki/Usage
Dec 31 08:55:36 <cengkaruk> Look straight foward
Dec 31 09:04:15 <bluelightning> morning all
Dec 31 09:05:00 <bluelightning> chankit: just to clarify, are you asking who maintains our gcc recipes?
Dec 31 09:06:08 <chankit> yes
Dec 31 09:07:28 <chankit> not sure if the gcc cross compiler is built using yocto recipe..I thought one of the foremost step of building yocto is to get the cross compiler to work so it can build yocto packages/images. Feel free to hammer me if I'm wrong :-)
Dec 31 09:08:34 <bluelightning> chankit: RP and khem
Dec 31 09:09:07 <bluelightning> chankit: but you're not currently having issues with gcc are you? you're still trying to get llvm to work, right?
Dec 31 09:11:08 <chankit> bluelightning: yes..still creeping to get llvm to work :-(
Dec 31 09:11:49 <bluelightning> right, so it's true that cross-compilation is one of the key aspects of our project
Dec 31 09:11:50 <chankit> bluelightning: Excuse my ignorance but may I know who's RP? I assume khem is Khem Raj?
Dec 31 09:11:57 <bluelightning> RP is Richard Purdie
Dec 31 09:13:12 <bluelightning> however, at the moment you're kind of treading in territory that isn't very well covered; we don't actively support llvm at this time (that doesn't mean it can't be made to work, it just means that it won't necessarily be easy to do so)
Dec 31 09:13:24 <chankit> bluelightning: oh okay...thanks..will contact them to have a case study
Dec 31 09:14:43 <chankit> bluelightning: I understand..but since cross compiling works in yocto (obviously), I would like to check why cross compiling works with gcc and see if I can find more headways from there
Dec 31 09:14:57 <chankit> *gcc cross compiling
Dec 31 09:16:10 <chankit> and I foresee that llvm might be a big deal in future so I don't mind working in this new blue ocean
Dec 31 09:18:09 <bluelightning> chankit: ok, no worries; it's definitely a worthwhile effort
Dec 31 09:20:05 <chankit> bluelightning: I personally prefer gcc (LLVM seems to be quite sneaky with their licensing rules) but I need llvm for my job's purpose and learning more deeply about cross compiling is a good exercise for me.
Dec 31 19:56:39 <Aethenelle> I'm trying to build core-image-sato for the edgerouter machine on a debian box. I keep getting errors in do_write_package_deb about invalid version numbers in the linux-yocto package. It seems dpkg is very particular about its version format. Is this a known issue? What's the recommended fix?
Dec 31 19:59:40 <Aethenelle> can I just add --nocheck to the dpkg-deb calls?
Dec 31 20:00:46 <Aethenelle> this is from poky/master...
