Description Jiajun Xu 2011-10-09 09:08:59 UTC 
tree/branch: poky/edison
commit: 5ed59ae0f25bf673d514df2371da7e0415b62bb2

The issue blocks all build testing against target "world". When building texinfo, it needs invoke a run-time generated binary - makedoc, which is consistent with the target OS we are building. It will report "cannot execute binary file" when building within yocto.

Error log as below:

Comment 1 Saul Wold 2011-10-15 16:10:04 UTC 
texinfo is primarily used as a native application, I can see that when it's building the makedoc is build for the target and then used natively, this is clearly incorrect, texinfo has a dependency on texinfo-native and may need to be modified further to find that makedoc native binary
Comment 2 Saul Wold 2011-12-15 09:25:13 UTC 
This commit adds the makedoc binary to the native install

Comment 3 Saul Wold 2011-12-15 14:03:12 UTC 
Second commit, that removed texinfo-native from ASSUME_PROVIDES so we can build the -native version and install the tools needed.
