[yocto] [Yocto][Meta-Raspberrypi] Yocto apt sources.list for Raspberry Pi

[Laigui Qin]

Hello Johnny,


Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I know that's not a good idea now.
I would like to think there is a well maintained Yocto/Poky repository somewhere in the world like the debian/Raspbian deb source to leverage (build and maintain my own repo is not my purpose.) Looks like there is not such repo available...
I do notice there is a Yocto subproject called "meta-debian", which try to leverage the debian repo. But not sure whether it works well without limitation...


BR,
Mike

Greetings.
If i understand you correctly you configured your Yocto/Poky OS to try to fetch updates from Raspbian OS.
You would need to configure Yocto/Poky to update from a Yocto/Poky repository. As with using Yocto you probably are defining your own, that would have to be your own repository URL.

Hi Everyone,


I am building the GNU Linux with Yocto for Raspberry Pi using meta-raspberrypi. Everything is good (with help of google search and yocto manual) until I added apt support to the image. As I am a little confused which Repository URL I should put in the sources.list, I tried the Raspbian repository. However, when I do apt-get upgrade I got following error which is not expected. Any idea on this effort?
