Hi,

I'm stuck trying to build Yocto Image for Raspberry Pi.

Following documentation I've come up with these commands....

https://gist.github.com/luke-unifymonitor/9ccd6745302eefa4763da8842e60e73a#add-the-meta-layers

I've got a feeling I'm not placing the git repositories/dependencies in the correct place.

Can anyone please provide me with the exact commands I need to execute? I'm guessing at it at the moment and getting nowhere :)

Thanks.

Hi Luke,

It looks like you have not added meta-raspberrypi to your configuration. You will need the following three commands instead of the two you have listed currently:

$ bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-raspberrypi
$ bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-mender/meta-mender-core
$ bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-mender/meta-mender-raspberrypi

Thanks Drew yet again - are you the only one that answers on this group :)

I'm afraid...

bitbake-layers add-layer ../meta-raspberrypi

...gets the following error..

ParseError at /home/luke/Documents/mender/yocto/poky/meta-raspberrypi/recipes-devtools/python/rpi-gpio_0.6.3.bb:8: Could not inherit file classes/pypi.bbclass

Looks like you are missing dependencies of the meta-raspberrypi layer. Take a look at https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/blob/master/README.md

You will need to clone git://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded.git and add the layers meta-python, meta-oe, meta-multimedia and meta-networking.

That looks to have done the job, I'm now able to run bitbake - hopefully it'll make it all the way through.

Thanks ever so much Drew,

Cheers

Luke
