With a fresh checkout of openembedded and all its layers, using oebb.sh, I see: NOTE: package linux-3.0.12-r113b: task do_fetch: Started ... ...git fetch -f --prune git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git refs/*:refs/* error: refs/tags/v2.6.38-rc7 does not point to a valid object! error: refs/tags/v2.6.38-rc8 does not point to a valid object! error: refs/tags/v2.6.38.1 does not point to a valid object!
NOTE: package linux-3.0.12-r113b: task do_fetch: Failed ERROR: Task 4 (/usr/src/Angstrom/sources/meta-ti/recipes-kernel/linux/linux_3.0.bb, do_fetch) failed with exit code '1' It sems to me that either the recipe for fetching from GIT is broken, or the upstream repos is broken, or git is broken. (I have git version 1.7.7.3 installed, from Debian). I can do: git clone \ git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git and everything succeeds; git fsck on the resulting repository reports no errors. What's more, the revision the recipe is looking for is present in the resulting repository. Therefore I suspect a bug in the git do_fetch() method. -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au peterc AT gelato.unsw.edu.au http://www.ertos.nicta.com.au ERTOS within National ICT Australia _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
