Hi Zhenhau,

It looks like the qemu-qoriq patches in github's meta-freescale repo are 
causing some problems for me.

If I do a "bitbake qemu" from a clean build environment, it subsequently 
fails during the compile task of gobjects-introspection.

During the compiling of gobjects-introspection, the 
g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper script is run which fails when it tries to 
execute "PSEUDO_UNLOAD=1 qemu-ppc64 ...".

"""

/build/yocto/build_meta_freescale/tmp/work/ppc64e5500-poky-linux/gobject-introspection/1.46.0-r0/build/g-ir-scanner-qemuwrapper: 
line 6: qemu-ppc64: command not found

"""

Maybe you already have a patch for this?  Let me know if you require 
further information, and I'll start a new thread.   I'll also look into 
creating the patch.


Thanks

Bob
