**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Oct 03 02:59:57 2011 Oct 03 08:52:51 I'm trying to port some packages over from openEmbedded, but my environment variables are quite different from what is expected, is there a sensible way to port packages are do you just have to dredge through them fixing the issues? Oct 03 11:35:50 Snafflehog: What kind of issues are you seeing? I know there may be some issues around old do_stage functions but it shouldn't be that different? Oct 03 12:11:43 RP__: it was an issue with ${STAGING_BINDIR_CROSS}, it was being used in conjunction with ${SYSROOT_DESTDIR} and the STAGING_BINDIR_CROSS had the full path instead of just the BINDIR, so I was getting /mnt/yocto/poky/build/tmp/sysroot/foo/bar/mnt/yocto/poky/build/tmp/work/usr/bin/foo/bar - or something to that effect Oct 03 12:12:48 I am trying to port across mysql and php which is proving to be fairly difficult - I am currently having troubles with the library files for mysql not being picked up by php Oct 03 12:38:01 ERROR: Please set the 'PERSISTENT_DIR' or 'CACHE' variable. Oct 03 12:38:13 anyone knows how to solve this? Oct 03 12:43:32 Guest14242: source setup script Oct 03 12:43:58 can u direct me? Oct 03 12:44:08 i followed the steps in yocto Oct 03 12:44:23 wget a bernard-5.0.1.tar Oct 03 12:44:24 which steps? Oct 03 12:44:31 then i extracted it Oct 03 12:44:41 source it at a new location build Oct 03 12:45:07 then i also did sysbolic link to bash instead hash Oct 03 12:45:49 then i approached bitbake -k poky-image-sato ... that's whr it came the error Oct 03 12:46:02 so if you type 'bitbake' into your sourced terminal what does it say? Oct 03 12:47:01 Snafflehog: Hmm, those recipes are "fun" iirc :/ Oct 03 12:49:05 JaMA: this steps...http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.1/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html Oct 03 12:49:59 RP: same erro Oct 03 12:56:24 anyone ? Oct 03 13:02:01 RP__: Yes, I am trying to get a very basic lighttpd, php, mysql with a custom application going and it's proving very difficult - are there any plans for extended package support or plans for documentation on how to convert packages? Oct 03 13:02:46 hmm....a test to solve the prob? Oct 03 13:16:56 RP__: I'm building 3 armv7a-vfp-neon machines (palmpre2/palmpre/nokia900) and after every MACHINE switch it does rebuild everything :/, but siginfo doesn't show enough info to guess me why.. do you have any idea please? http://paste.pocoo.org/show/486486/ Oct 03 14:00:18 is there a way out of ERROR: Please set the 'PERSISTENT_DIR' or 'CACHE' variable. Oct 03 14:00:46 under my conf contains bblayers.conf and local.conf Oct 03 14:01:16 is there a dir that i should set within the local.conf ? Oct 03 14:09:18 ERROR: IO Error: file 'conf/bitbake.conf' not found Oct 03 14:09:32 anyone came across such an error? Oct 03 14:23:55 JaMa|Off: It is caching the MACHINE value in the sstate checksum Oct 03 14:24:04 JaMa|Off: So somehow your eglibc is depending on MACHINE Oct 03 14:25:33 Snafflehog: I'd advise posting on the mailing list with the metadata you're using and the issues you're seeing, see if someone can help Oct 03 14:26:25 RP__, ok, thanks. I was also wondering is there any documentation on installing your programs to your hardware - would you create a .bb file and install like that or would you use a package manager/ Oct 03 14:26:49 RP__: could it be because of MACHINE_CLASS? Oct 03 14:26:50 MACHINE_CLASS ?= "" Oct 03 14:26:50 MACHINEOVERRIDES .= ":${MACHINE_CLASS}" Oct 03 14:27:24 Snafflehog: You'd usually write a .bb which you could then use directly in an image, or use the generated package file and install that Oct 03 14:27:45 thats what I thought, thanks again Oct 03 14:28:00 hmm..okay Oct 03 14:28:06 thanks for the advise Oct 03 14:28:36 Guest14242: I would assume that you are not setting up your environment correctly Oct 03 14:29:34 Guest14242: For some reason the environment setup isn't right and it can't find the files it needs to be able to find Oct 03 14:30:05 Guest14242: this is the important part of the quick start guide I believe went wrong: source poky-bernard-5.0.1/poky-init-build-env poky-5.0.1-build Oct 03 14:31:35 Guest14242: You are in a poky-5.0.1-build directory which contains a conf directory and the bblayers.conf and local.conf under it, right? Oct 03 14:31:45 Guest14242: what does "which bitbake" show? Oct 03 14:34:58 JaMa|Off: Not convinced MACHINE_CLASS is it. Check the full output for one of those sigdata files and see which variable depends on MACHINE Oct 03 14:35:09 JaMa|Off: then track back from there Oct 03 14:37:20 RP__: that output on pastebin was all bitbake-diffsigs is showing Oct 03 14:38:57 JaMa|Off: did you call it with just one file? Oct 03 14:44:39 RP__: ah.. I was always using diffsigs with 2 files.. but still not very clever from output http://paste.pocoo.org/show/486534/ Oct 03 14:45:42 JaMa|Off: looks like it is the MACHINE_CLASS piece thats causing problems Oct 03 14:47:59 JaMa|Off: I'm trying to remember how MACHINE got whitelisted in the past Oct 03 14:48:59 * JaMa|Off also trying to git grep vardepsexclude but all I could find was PACKAGE_ARCHS[vardepsexclude] = "MACHINE_ARCH" Oct 03 14:49:29 JaMa|Off: You could try MACHINEOVERRIDES[vardepsexclude] = "MACHINE" Oct 03 14:50:11 In some ways the system is right to be paranoid, a machine override can affect anything :/ Oct 03 14:51:08 ok.. added to distro config, lets see if it helps in few days, thanks Oct 03 17:11:15 JaMa|Off, hi Oct 03 17:11:26 I hit this rebuild problem too Oct 03 17:11:45 I build for crespo,nexusone,nokia900....and it rebuilds everything... Oct 03 18:53:26 khem, what is the url to download oecore email in raw for git am ? Oct 03 18:57:09 nitink: i use patchworks Oct 03 18:57:32 nitink: you can pick off patches w/ the mbox link Oct 03 18:57:41 wget -q -O- url | git am Oct 03 18:58:07 msm: thanks, any more information about patchworks, the oecore archieve does not have link to raw emails Oct 03 18:58:23 http://patches.openembedded.org/ Oct 03 18:58:42 find the patches you want, there is a mbox link for each one Oct 03 18:58:49 or make a bundle if you want to apply lots Oct 03 18:59:03 or even better install the patchworks command line interface Oct 03 19:02:05 msm: great, this is what I was looking for. thank you, I appreciate it !
