**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Oct 20 02:59:57 2008 Oct 20 10:13:53 * Jeroen___ waves, "Anyone there?" Oct 20 13:02:16 Hi Oct 20 16:24:08 i'm still looking for help with the Package (null) message I'm getting with the bitbake packages I created, is anyone here? Oct 20 16:39:54 scant: more info is needed, of course. I'm at work right now and cannot work on this. Oct 20 16:40:36 Make sure your build environment is up-to-date, and you'll need to provide some info to the mailing list, such as the package you are building (and if it's no part of OE, you should provide the .bb file) Oct 20 16:41:37 The architecture is usually specified in your conf files when you do the build, and such an error is indicitive of an improperly set up build environment... shouldn't happen if you use the makefiles to set up the cross dev environment. Oct 20 16:42:19 But there hare been MAJOR changes to the OE structure (migration to git) so a refresh is a good idea if you've not done so already; instructions on how to convert from mtn to git were sent to the ml. Oct 20 16:42:37 mwester: i wrote to the mailing list, and gave a lot of information Oct 20 16:42:55 mwester: but i thought someone would have replied by now, but no one hasn't Oct 20 16:43:06 migration to git? holy cow, happens every few year... Oct 20 16:43:16 When I try to install a bitbaked package I created on SlugOS 4.8 Oct 20 16:43:16 beta, I get this: Oct 20 16:43:16 Package (null) has no Architecture defined Oct 20 16:43:16 My cross-compile environment is on a derivative of a Debian Oct 20 16:43:16 distribution and I followed these instructions: Oct 20 16:43:17 http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/Development/MasterMakefile Oct 20 16:43:19 To create the environment I ran: Oct 20 16:43:21 source setup-env Oct 20 16:43:23 rather than Oct 20 16:43:25 make setup-host-debian Oct 20 16:43:27 Also, all the commands I issued were from a non-root account even Oct 20 16:43:29 though the above-referenced page says to run from root. Is this Oct 20 16:43:31 correct? Oct 20 16:43:33 Is this no architecture defined error message I'm receiving a bug or Oct 20 16:43:35 did I misstep somewhere? Oct 20 16:43:37 Here's my OE Build Configuration: Oct 20 16:43:39 BB_VERSION = "1.8.10" Oct 20 16:43:41 METADATA_BRANCH = "org.openembedded.dev" Oct 20 16:43:43 METADATA_REVISION = "2c18f41640ddd0943cc91f025d7649cdbde89ea4" Oct 20 16:43:45 TARGET_ARCH = "armeb" Oct 20 16:43:47 TARGET_OS = "linux" Oct 20 16:43:49 MACHINE = "nslu2be" Oct 20 16:43:51 DISTRO = "slugos" Oct 20 16:43:53 DISTRO_VERSION = "5.0-alpha" Oct 20 16:43:55 TARGET_FPU = "soft" Oct 20 16:44:37 I saw your question on the mailing list. Oct 20 16:44:41 oh Oct 20 16:44:52 You need to provide the recipe for the package; it's wrong. Oct 20 16:45:00 Or your environment is broken Oct 20 16:45:12 I'm at work, though, and need to do what I'm being paid for! Oct 20 16:45:14 mwester: I just like 3 days ago redid my cross env Oct 20 16:45:36 mwester: ok, sorry to bother you Oct 20 16:46:28 i'm going to verify if it happens with bb files that are part of the repo Oct 20 16:46:49 actually, in fact i did verify it occurs with libogg Oct 20 16:47:00 and i didn't touch libogg bb files Oct 20 16:51:10 I reposted with the extra information you requested, sorry for bothering you again Oct 20 16:51:25 Ok, I'll look at it this evening or so. Oct 20 16:52:04 Do the .bb recipes you wrote some time ago buld and install correctly? (Did you ever get those submitted and checked in, btw?) Oct 20 16:55:08 mwester: I'm coming back to this, to continue my work, only 2 were submitted so far, but I have a few more to submit, I think no bb will work, but I can try them, I still have the exact bb files I submitted with the help of osas Oct 20 16:55:38 Did osas add them to OE, do you know? Oct 20 16:56:20 I saw some mailing list messages about CUPS and that's one of the ones I updated, and would like to continue submitting my work, thanks for asking about it Oct 20 16:56:59 mwester: the procedure osas and I followed was, I submitted bugs for each bb file I wanted to add via the openembedded bug tracker Oct 20 16:57:19 mwester: i'm pretty sure at least 1 of them went into the repo, flac Oct 20 16:58:03 If the others didn't then retest with the new structure, and at least get them added on a branch (we can branch and merge much more easily with git now) Oct 20 16:58:44 Send a note to the list, and we'll follow up from there when I have a bit more time. Thanks! Oct 20 16:59:06 mwester: i know you're at work, I would like to streamline the process of adding them and be more involved if possible, but I don't know how, when you have the time, perhaps you can aid me Oct 20 16:59:28 mwester: send a note to the list concerning? my new bb packages? Oct 20 17:01:02 mwester: i would like to test my bb files before I submitt them to the OE bug tracker or the nslu2-linux mailing list (if that's what you meant) Oct 20 17:02:19 mwester: i'll be around and thanks, i'll be looking forward to getting this resolved when you have the time, or perhaps sooner by someone else... thanks Oct 21 02:11:39 hi mwester **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Oct 21 02:59:57 2008
