Hello.  I read the posts a couple days ago about the Python issues with
Kconfig feature.  I didn't see a resolution on how this would be fixed.  I
am running Ubuntu 14.04LTS, building u-boot and the problem I have is that
the eldk tools have a older python (2.7.3) which does not have the
subprocess module but the current Ubuntu python (2.7.6) does include the
subprocess module.  When I add the eldk (cross compiler) path before my
env $PATH the defconfig fails in multiconfig.py (uses the python in the
eldk toolkit).  Can I just remove python from the eldk tools (so the newer
python will be used) or is that older python version required for some
other script in the cross compiler?

You only need
/opt/eldk-5.5/armv5te/sysroots/i686-eldk-linux/usr/bin/armv5te-linux-gnueabi
to be added to your PATH to compile U-Boot (or the kernel).  I don't
know why OpenEmbedded-based SDKs default to such a stripped down Python2
installation.


Because it is unneeded bloat? Adding a DEPENDS to the U-boot recipe
for python-subprocess and python-xyz and rebuilding the sdk should fix this
I guess.

Jeroen
