i've noticed there are various web pages purporting to explain how to set up a proper OE/yocto development host, but they give what is pretty clearly contradictory information.
as one example, there's this page on getting started with OE: http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/Getting_started that claims to steal from a number of sources including the yocto QS guide, but look at the packages one is instructed to install on that page, particularly under fedora: python, perl, git, and so on. as i read it, the sanity.bbclass and ASSUME_PROVIDED will dictate what needs to be there and what will be used if it's installed natively, no? it certainly seems that that wiki page is insructing the developer to install a lot of software that OE will handle automatically, no? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
