Hi Zhenhua,

I only tried two things after installing sdkv1.3:  bitbake 
core-image-minimal (no build problems) and bitbake <my-custom-image> 
(had the parse problem with package.bbclass)

I'm wondering why you bother bundling poky with your SDK. Why not just 
release the meta-fsl-* layers and point the user to which poky branch & 
tag you tested against?  If this was the case, then I would just need to 
fast forward the poky branch to pick up patches.

I continue to be confused why FSL maintains two repos for meta-fsl-ppc. 
  The one on git.freescale.com is obviously ahead, but the one on yocto 
does have some recent, selective patches.

As a SW developer for QorIQ, it would be my preference that the yocto 
(BSP) repositories for meta-fsl-* were just a mirror of 
git.freescale.com and Freescale wouldn't bother to maintain a separate 
poky repo (just patch the one on yocto / OE and reference it).

Wouldn't this be easier for everyone?

Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.


This SDK has been verified on typical Linux distros(Ubuntu, Redhat, 
Fedora, CentOS, openSUSE) with Python 2.6/2.7.

FYI: I use Ubuntu 12.04.1, and Python 2.7.3


Thanks,
