Aborting ... Also, if the host OS does not have latex installed but has dvips installed, do_install will similarly fail with the following error: + dvips This is dvips(k) 5.96.1 Copyright 2007 Radical Eye Software (www.radicaleye.com) dvips: ! DVI file can't be opened. These errors do not occur on host systems which don't have these utilities installed. Eventually we will include latex and dvips in native recipes. But for now the immediate fix is to disable these parts of the build. I have a fix prepared and will mark this bug fixed once it reaches master. 12141 1 scott.a.garman 2011-02-26 09:11:17 +0000 This was fixed with: http://git.pokylinux.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=16b8f9693655a1964014fc4afba861c4d59ea93f 13346 2 scott.a.garman 2011-04-18 15:56:54 +0000 Verified this fix works on systems that have or do not have latex installed.
