Hello,
I'm developing on the TI Beagleboard (OMAP3, ARM Cortex A-8). I've
set up OE, a local overlay, and this seems to work fine as I've built
several different images and have them running on the target.
I'm now to the point where I want to start developing our application
code. Some of this code is based on the GIW library (graphical
plotting library), so I thought that I would work to get this and its
examples included in the my 'custom' distribution before moving on.
In my local overlay, I created a packages/giw directory and added the
following starter bitbake file (and I've tried different things after
the SRC_URI with same results):
DESCRIPTION = "Giw Plotting Libraries"
LICENSE = "gpl"
DEPENDS += "gtk+"
SRC_URI = "\
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/giw/giw-0.2.4.tar.bz2?use_mirror=superb-west
\
"
Just a quick note:
You should use the ${SOURCEFORGE_MIRROR} instead of
http://downloads.sourceforge.net, also do not use ?use_mirror=superb-west.
Using ${PV} instead of 0.2.4 is also a good idea.
If I run bitbake giw , it downloads the file from sourceforge and
places it into my tmp/dowloads directory. Following that, I get this
output:

It's not clear to me why it's trying to do this. I'm assuming that
there is some 'global' thing controlling this, but I'm sure what it
is. Why is it trying to download something from Angstrom?
It is a feature of Angstrom to look at Angstroms source mirror. You can
ignore this error. I don't know why it fails to fetch the sources from
sourceforge - sorry.
best regards
