[yocto] [OE-core] Carrier Grade layer proposal

Mon Jul 7 11:43:43 PDT 2014

Hello Jeff,

The errors are package related. 
Meta-cgl can be seen as a non BSP specific layer (it can be viewed as the LSB from poky).
I already started fixing a number, of the already existing errors and the patches will be added upstream after proper testing.
I will continue the bug fixing and package integration (into the core-image-cgl image) process and after that is finished I will continue with the
Category B packages.

I will also try to keep you guys informed about the latest updates, mainly on the YPTM, but for those who cannot wait that much, there is the
Git repository with which they can interact: http://git.enea.com/git/?p=linux/meta-cgl.git;a=summary

Have a good day,
Alex

Thanks, Alex.

Others on the mailing lists, if you have any comments on the contents of this new layer, please mention them on this thread.

Re compilation errors, were they specific to a BSP or were they general errors in the packages?

thanks
