[yocto] Build Error

[Sean Liming]

I am new developer to Yocto and embedded Linux in general

 

Host machine: i3 with 4GB RAM

OS: Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit

 

I am following the online quick start guide, and looks like the end of
bitbake runs into several errors:

 

ERROR: Task 1136
(/home/sean/poky-edison-6.0/meta/recipes-sato/pimlico/contacts_git.bb,
do_configure) failed with exit code '1'

ERROR:

failed

 

Looking back at the build process, one error calls out a package that cannot
be downloaded:
http://tango.freedesktop.org/releases/icon-naming-utils-0.8.7.tar.gz

 

I have attached errors some of the log files. The common error appears to be
oe_runconf failed.

 

Did I miss configure something? Wrong python version?

There was a post about the dash vs. bash shell. I am not sure what shell is
supposed to be using:

 

The instructions say run sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash and say no. Nothing in
the message popup says what is the shell.

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Regards,

 

Sean
