Thanks Denys for the pointers. Have subscribed to meta-arago. My questions will be more appropriately posted.

BTW, meta-arago has its own mailing list, as well as meta-linaro has one too. Complaining to OE-Core about specifics like this is like posting to LKML about issues with your Linux distro... As Khem said - ask your SDK provider. And maybe try doing that first - could probably save you a lot of headache... > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Khem Raj [mailto:raj.k...@gmail.com] > > Sent: Tuesday, October 24, 2017 1:46 PM > > To: Lee, Yong <yong....@johnsonoutdoors.com> > > Cc: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org > > Subject: Re: [OE-core] GCC 4.9 and Morty > > > > On Tue, Oct 24, 2017 at 10:33 AM, Lee, Yong <yong....@johnsonoutdoors.com> > > wrote: > > > Thanks Raj for the input.
