For those interested in my build saga, I performed a mostly successful build of poky-minimal-image on my old Fedora 8 distro (oustide my Sony firewall).
This was after I installed an poky 586 sdk, and set path to include /opt/poky/.../usr/bin (to pick up python 2.6.5) and after adding a fedora package to add chrpath to my system (not listed on the yocto distro help page). The build took 6 hours, and the emulator didn't quite finish. Here was the error: ERROR: Logfile of failure stored in: /a/home/tbird/work/yocto/poky-4.0-build/tmp/work/i686-linux/qemu-native-0.12.4-r22/temp/log.do_configure.12332 Log data follows: | You need libGL.so and libGLU.so to exist in your library path and the development headers for SDL installed to build qemu-native. | Ubuntu package names are: libgl1-mesa-dev, libglu1-mesa-dev and libsdl1.2-dev | ERROR: Task failed: ('function do_configure failed', '/a/home/tbird/work/yocto/poky-4.0-build/tmp/work/i686-linux/qemu-native-0.12.4-r22/temp/log.do_configure.12332') NOTE: package qemu-native-0.12.4-r22: task do_configure: Failed I checked, and indeed my system is missing SDL-devel. Due to some broken dependencies in my yum database, it turned out to be difficult to install this package, and I'm going to give up (again) on this machine. I noticed after the build that my yocto directory was consuming 30G of disk space. The big parts were in yocto/poky-4.0-build/tmp/work $ du -sh * 2.2M all-poky-linux 18G i586-poky-linux 3.5G i686-linux 4.6G qemux86-poky-linux This seems a bit high?
