[yocto] i.MX6DL Qt5.5 Image

[Charles Chau]

Thank you very much for replying,

Most of the problem I encounter is Package Dependencies which I cannot 
find anywhere (with Google).  I am still learning the components to 
build an image so Yocto is confusing.

I wanted to build qt5 for free i.MX6 board.
In the beginning, I was trying to build core-image-minimal and all the 
dependencies error popped up.
So I change to only bitbake qtbase, to start from small.

Right now, I have deleted libgl-mesa-dev from
/meta-fsl-arm/recipes-graphics/imx-gpu-viv/imx-gpu-viv.inc

Although I still encounter Kernel issue, at least it get passed the 
configuring stage.

The thing I want to learn is that, How can I add libgl-mesa-dev to my 
Yocto build without delete stuff. I tried to add "mesa" to 
"IMAGE_INSTALL_append" and it did not work though.

For example, if I miss gnome, I would go to the web to find it and git 
clone, then go to bblayers and add gnome path. But package definition or 
libraries are different, I just do not know how they work.

Again, thank you!!!
