[yocto] How to use a local SVN repository as a premirror?

[spdev31]

Hello all,

 

Just to share the info – it looks like bitbake’s fetch2 is adding the tar.gz extension.  See build-bundle/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/fetch2/svn.py.  For now, I’m skipping the idea to use PREMIRRORS to fetch from a local SVN repository to avoid making bitbake modifications.

 

FYI,

Shaun

Hello all,

 

I have a local SVN repository which Yocto successfully downloads from using SRC_URI.  Now I'm trying to setup Yocto to use this repository as a premirror rather than an upstream source.  But I'm getting fetch errors while trying to convert from SRC_URI to PREMIRRORS.  Can anyone point me to how can I setup a local SVN server as a premirror?  I have not been able to find any examples online, but I've found old references to git premirrors (https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/poky/2011-September/007014.html)

 

My SVN URL is svn://127.0.01/MyRepo/trunk/TopLevel/TestDir and can be accessed as an upstream source with 

SRC_URI = "svn://127.0.01/MyRepo/trunk/TopLevel;module=TestDir".  But when I setup PREMIRRORS to "svn://.*/.* svn://127.0.0.1/MyRepo/trunk/TopLevel" my SVN server shows that Yocto tries accessing the following invalid URL: /MyRepo/trunk/TopLevel/TestDir_127.0.0.1_.MyRepo.trunk.TopLevel_3_.tar.gz/TestDir.

 

The "tar.gz" part of the invalid URL appears to be the cause - can anyone help me understand why this "tar.gz" URL is added when PREMIRRORS is used?

 

Please let me know if this question is better suited for the poky mailing list.

 

Thanks,

Shaun
