[yocto] BITBAKE ADD-LAYER | HELP!!

[Dhanush K.S]

Hello MailingList,

I just upgraded yocto to the latest release (Sumo 19.0 /Yocto 2.5.1).
Currently i am trying to add the meta-openembedded layer to my
conf/bblayers.conf using the command "bitbake-layers add-layer
DIRECTORY_PATH/LAYER".

But I am getting parseError at times.


   - Is it absolutely necessary to checkout the meta-openembedded layer to
   the same Branch as that of the Yocto Version? or is it alright to stay in
   the master Branch?
   - I can add the meta-oe sub-layer while on master but i get parseError
   when on the Sumo branch.
   - I am not able to add the meta-python and meta-networking sub-layers of
   meta-openembedded to the conf/bblayers.conf file without getting parse
   errors. (meta-networking sub-layer depends on meta-python, so until I
   resolve that I cannot add this)


*[ac500v3 at localhost build-2.5]$ bitbake-layers add-layer

What and where am I going wrong?
