Modify it and repackage. What I really want to do is actually host it on git so I can work on it, and point the bb file to build against a stable branch of it from git. But before I can even put it in git or do any work on it, I have to be able to even build it. | Everyone here has simliar setup and they actually use it everyday.

Ignore the libts-dev (It's on buildhost, what do you mean by | "I don't know which one"?) at least for now. (I mean talking about /directory/... on a remote server without mentioning the URL is assuming a little bit.) | You can find everything I wrote here on | | https://wiki.internal.openmoko.org/wiki/Internal_Development_Environment I went and examined it earlier, it refers to magic makefiles, monotone, it is the middle of something not the start of it.

OK now this is the kind of thing I can use, I will give it a go: thanks for taking the time to write it up -- either you or me should write it up in the public Wiki if it works out. How I capture the built tree or decide what to put in git I dunno but it seems I can try to move on. | Since it's a public list here I would like to add: | | The internal OE overlay is for NDA stuff such as production testing | software.

Yep for me it means I get to spectate on what it is like to approach this build system from cold, as would a new developer: since I never used it before. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkgHFr4ACgkQOjLpvpq7dMrjwQCfdUJ+I0p0kFfGSo8Xk3tl1xnN QysAn3DyoSsAe4s8mnRWYdGL5PozPQ0X =iPn3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
