Once a eSDK has been built/installed, you need to install meson itself: $ devtool sdk-install meson-native But then running 'meson' doesn't actually inject the cross variables as it does with a normal SDK: $ meson build The Meson build system Version: 1.3.1 Source dir: /home/rosbur01/Mess/libepoxy-1.5.3 Build dir: /home/rosbur01/Mess/libepoxy-1.5.3/build Build type: native build Project name: libepoxy Project version: 1.5.3 meson.build:1:0: ERROR: Could not invoke sanity test executable: [Errno 8] Exec format error: '/home/rosbur01/Mess/libepoxy-1.5.3/build/meson-private/sanitycheckc.exe'. Note how it thinks its doing a native build, but is using the cross compiler. This is because the wrapper script only redirects if OECORE_NATIVE_SYSROOT is set, and it is not inside an eSDK. We can manually set it for testing: $ export OECORE_NATIVE_SYSROOT=/home/rosbur01/esdk/tmp/sysroots/aarch64 $ meson setup build meson-wrapper: Running meson with setup options: " --cross-file=/home/rosbur01/esdk/tmp/sysroots/aarch64/usr/share/meson/i686-poky-linux-meson.cross --native-file=/home/rosbur01/esdk/tmp/sysroots/aarch64/usr/share/meson/meson.native " Could not find any valid candidate for cross files: /home/rosbur01/esdk/tmp/sysroots/aarch64/usr/share/meson/i686-poky-linux-meson.cross ERROR: Cannot find specified cross file: /home/rosbur01/esdk/tmp/sysroots/aarch64/usr/share/meson/i686-poky-linux-meson.cross The meson.cross file doesn't exist because it is meant to be generated by the meson-setup.py as part of the relocation process, which is done totally differently in eSDK. 102648 1 ross.burton 2025-08-21 14:47:51 +0000 Fixed proper eSDK, minimal eSDK still broken (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15854).
