When trying to build core-image-sato (or zypper) the build aborts due to an error in the zypper package. I use poky-edison-6.0.1.tar.gz.

Content of the ~/user-config.jam file is: using gcc ; (Usually I have more options in my user-config.jam, but I can strip it down to the single line above to reproduce the error.) The problems seems to be in the invocation of bjam (the Boost.Build tool) in file meta/recipes-support/boost/boost-36.inc The recipe creates a user-config.jam (file boost-36.inc, function do_boostconfig) named ${S}/tools/build/v2/user-config.jam to define the cross compiler which shall be used by bjam in the do_compile step. But [1] states, that bjam looks for a user-config.jam first in $HOME and then in $BOOST_BUILD_PATH. It seems that the user-config.jam in $HOME is used instead of the one in ${S}/tools/build/v2/ (aka $BOOST_BUILD_PATH). Maybe it is a option to set the --ignore-config argument when invoking bjam and define the compiler property as an argument (see [2]).

The --ignore-config ignores all configs! That seems to have done the trick, I will push a patch for this soon 20884 2 richard.purdie 2012-04-26 11:49:13 +0000 Fixed in master: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=c2b663f5f8d783ad7de5106d8d91434ee76b9e1a
