I was hoping for bitbake world to work as a QA tool. But my efforts on the world target didn't really receive a warm welcome. By now world is so utterly broken that bitbake won't even ever start to execute any tasks (I killed bitbake after two days when it still did nothing the last time I tried). Unfortunately, currently there is no consensus in OE that "MACHINE=$machine bitbake $bb" shouldn't arbitrarily fail somewhere. Right now, OE does not have the tools in place to specify that for example $bb1 does not compile for $machineA (some people are very allergic to COMPATIBLE_MACHINE for no particular reason). Bitbake can't do versioned depends and so we can't say that $bb2-$version does not compile with gcc less than 3.4.x, for example. Those are just two examples. XorA "solved" this in a hackish way with angsstrom.bbclass. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
