Another option perhaps is to use a debian stable container with docker (https://hub.docker.com/r/cbrake/oe-build/ <https://hub.docker.com/r/cbrake/oe-build/>) and you can use your favorite distro for stuff you usually do and at same time let OE/YP build on a known/supported distro e.g. Its a bit of mind shift but I am happily using it, while my distro stays bleeding edge arch. e.g. see http://bec-systems.com/site/1281/using-docker-for-oeyocto-builds <http://bec-systems.com/site/1281/using-docker-for-oeyocto-builds> > > Ross > -- > _______________________________________________ > yocto mailing list > yocto@yoctoproject.org > https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
