Description Richard Purdie 2014-07-16 13:59:05 UTC
https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/main/builders/nightly-fsl-arm/builds/166/steps/CreateAutoConf/logs/stdio

shows PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto-dev" being set for the *fsl-arm* builds

This results in obtuse build errors since linux-yocto-dev isn't available and some other random kernel provider is chosen.

Can we stop setting that PREFERRED_PROVIDER for the non linux-yocto builds?

Patch created. Waiting for a production pause to push to live.
Comment 2 Beth Flanagan 2014-07-18 22:45:14 UTC
Added to production. This should be resolved but I'd like to see a mut run before I mark it so.
Comment 3 Beth Flanagan 2014-07-31 23:47:02 UTC
This is fixed for fsl-dev builds.
Comment 4 Andra Necula 2014-09-08 08:34:49 UTC
Hello,

Verified with local autobuilder setup. PREFERRED_PROVIDER variable doesn't exist any more. 
I will mark this bug as verified.
