Dear Chris and OE folks,

I am sorry for forwarding this message to the list that late.

[oe] First time user: suggestions

Hi,

I've talked to someone on FOSDEM about OE, and wanted to try it (I also
just started to use OpenWrt for a university project)

These are my first time user notes (and suggestion for improvements).

Starting with: http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Main_Page and especially
the "Getting Started" Page. This seems to be outdated (using the classic
repos and not the "layered" core. Building the classic branch did not work
out for me. Not a very good first user experience. I suggest that the the
Getting Started page is replaced with the contents from
wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/OpenEmbedded-Core (and slighly enhanced).

Building the -core was also problematic. Two packages caused troubles:
zlib and another package (don't know the name anymore). Both problems were
caused because it could not download some files.

It seems zlib.org removed all downloads prior to 1.2.6, and OE uses 1.2.5.
Applying the patch from http://patches.openembedded.org/patch/20641/ fixed
the problem.
The other package could not be downloaded because it was hosted on
kernel.org and the content seemed to have been removed.
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.openembedded.core/14810helped
me fix the issue.

Suggestion 2: These download problems seems not be fixed very rapidly
(although they should be quite easy to fix). I wonder why. My theory (but
prove me wrong), is that developers won't see this because they have the
download cached in their download directory So only new users will discover

[oe] [meta-oe] Patch delays coming up


Hi,

It's conference season again which means I'll be travelling a lot these 2
months so there will be a delay in getting patches into meta-openembedded.
Normally I'd nominate Khem to keep an eye on it, but he'll be at ELC as well :)
If you have patches you want in quickly, have them ready for monday/tuesday
which are still largely free of meetings.

Don't hesitate to ping your patches on this ml if they seem to get left
behind. And don't forget to use the [meta-oe] tag to get patchwork attention.

regards,

Koen

[oe] bitbake versions

I'm having trouble even parsing using bitbake > 1.12.

Am I right in thinking that the openembedded tree isn't ready to be 
built with bitbake > 1.12?

If so, then the getting started document should probably include this info.

I added into my image

IMAGE_FEATURES += "package-management"

and after rebuild find the missing directories in my image. Looking
around in my environment gives:

* angstrom sets
meta-angstrom/conf/distro/include/angstrom-core-tweaks.inc:EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES
??= "package-management"
* in my local.conf I have (taken from OE-core local.conf.sample - long
time ago) EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "debug-tweaks"
* EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES is added to IMAGE_FEATURES in bitbake.conf.

look at meta-java

virtual/java-native
virtual/javac-native
virtual/javac

and work with Henning (woglinge) to sort out any other layer APIs you need these
layers to live amicably

[oe] bitbake confusion

I've just started working with current OE, (Palm has been branched for 
several years).  And I'm a bit confused about how bitbake is supposed to 
work these days.

In the output below, how do I tell where the file with the erroneous 
line might be?  I mean, I can grep, but that won't necessarily tell me 
which file bitbake thought led to the failing include.

What am I missing?
