2011-04-16 Thread Ben Gamari
Did anything ever happen with this[1] patch? If not, is there another convenient way to use the proper tools in leiu of busybox? For larger machines it's very nice to have a more civilized environment. Thanks, - Ben ___ Openembedded-devel mailing list

[oe] Dealing with ttyS -> ttyO rename on OMAP3 in 2.6.37

2011-01-18 Thread Ben Gamari
As you may know, the kernel's OMAP serial driver has been fixed in 2.6.37 to move away from the ttyS naming towards the OMAP-specific ttyO prefix. This was done in light of the fact that ttyS is apparently reserved for traditional PC-style serial controllers. I've spent the last day or two trying

[oe] Using native package build tree when building target package

2011-01-17 Thread Ben Gamari
Today I've been looking at the icu package, which is quite out-of-date in the repository. Unfortunately, it seems that the latest version (4.6) requires that the absolute path to a source tree built for the host be passed to configure. Does anyone have any clever ideas concerning how this might be

[oe] Boost 1.45

2010-12-27 Thread Ben Gamari
For a long time, the newest version of boost in openembedded has been 1.41, released over two years ago. As far as I can tell, the reason for this is that the recipe uses the cmake branch, which has been stagnant for the last several years. The reason for this is that the build system used by boos

[oe] Python 2.7.1 support

2010-12-27 Thread Ben Gamari
I spent a few hours over the last few days forward porting the python 2.6 recipes to 2.7.1. At this point I can build both python-native and python on for my ARM target. I don't have time or access to hardware at the moment so I can't test the produce binaries but I figured I'd send this out in th

2010-11-22 Thread Ben Gamari
Hey all, Recently I tried updating our openembedded environment for an embedded application built around the BeagleBoard. Unfortunately, the build failed while configuring the kernel with an inexplicable bus error. To trace down the issue I installed the latest meta-toolchain sdk and tried buildin
