I can see that it's built and installed in my tmp/sysroots/HOST but it's installed in a sub-directory which is not found by normal means. inherit pythonnative (or one of the classes that inherit it) Thanks, I imported 'distutils' and that helped, but I still have problems with it. Looking at log.do_configure: checking for python... /local/rpi_2014-04-10/tmp/__sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/__python-native/python checking for python-config... /local/rpi_2014-04-10/tmp/__sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/__python-native/python-config Traceback (most recent call last): File "/local/rpi_2014-04-10/tmp/__sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/__python-native/python-config", line 6, in <module> from distutils import sysconfig File "/local/rpi_2014-04-10/tmp/__sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/lib/__python2.7/distutils/sysconfig.__py", line 22, in <module> PREFIX = os.path.normpath(sys.prefix).__replace( os.getenv("BUILD_SYS"), os.getenv("HOST_SYS") ) TypeError: expected a character buffer object When I ran python-config before (original email), the results were from outside the build environment, i.e. the command line where I run 'bitbake'. When do_configure() runs in my recipe, the environment seems to be quite different. If I try to run python-config from devshell (for my recipe), it fails as above. First, it's a bit worrisome that you're inheriting a class for distutils when your build doesn't actually use distutils.. but beyond that, I don't think the classes inherited by distutils assume you'll be running python-config. Add this: export BUILD_SYS export HOST_SYS
I went back to only inheriting pythonnative (I was a bit overzealous to follow your 'or a class that inherits it'). I found that I also needed: export STAGING_INCDIR export STAGING_LIBDIR Perhaps pythonnative should imply those exports, as without them, python-config is useless. Anyway, now the recipe successfully builds the python interface!!
