[yocto] Build error: "u-boot-imx_2017.03.bb:do_compile" failed ( freescale I.MX 6 on Ubuntu 16.04) ?

[Eric Schwarz]

Hello Jerry,

U-Boot depends on Python but the dependency is not included in the 
U-Boot recipe AFAIK.
I have already sent a patchset which was not complete at that time to 
the yocto mailinglist. Ross meant one needs to inherit from Python 
U-Boot class in the recipe not just include a dependency o/w it will not 
be in path.
The error only comes up because you do not have Python installed on your 
system I think.

Cheers
Eric
