[yocto] bitbake error during image build for VIA Embedded VAB-820 BSP

[Trevor Woerner]

I tried the build myself, following the instructions to which you 
linked. There were a couple "gotchas" along the way (noted, with 
work-arounds, below [*]), but otherwise the build succeeded. Could you 
try it again, following the steps exactly, and if it fails again, please 
list out exactly everything you typed?

It's great seeing more projects and companies using Yocto, although I 
have to say VIA's use is a little different. I would be nice if they 
integrated with the project in a more "conventional" way.


[*]

1. lttng fails due to some race condition, it tries to run some 
kernel/script program before it has compiled it. If it fails for you, 
simply re-start the build a second time and it should succeed.

2. gtkperf fails to build. Fortunately the gtkperf version in 
meta-openembedded's master is the same as the one from VIA's BSP. Delete 
the one from the BSP (rm -fr 
sources/meta-fsl-bsp-release/imx/meta-fsl-demos/recipes-graphics/gtkperf) and 
replace it with the one from today's master branch of 
meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-graphics/gtkperf
