[yocto] building uclibc based image for arm

[Harshal Govind (hgovind)]

Thanks Raj!

I was pulling yocto 1.7.2 and did not add any custom recipe or target. I just build core-image-minimal image with enabling uclibc in "meta/conf/distro/defaultsetup.conf" (#TCLIBC ?= "uclibc")

But if I do same thing with yocto 2.0 or 2.1, it goes successful and builds uclibc based images.

when using uclibc, it should not pull any glibc components for targets. but its happening for your case so figure out how this is getting into dependencies. May be you are including it explicitly or its coming via indirect deps. you can use bitbake -g to generate dep info and inspect it
