Description Randy Witt 2014-11-06 18:49:04 UTC

If we want to be able to have a SDK toolchain that is updatable using sstate and also usable by the copy of bitbake within the SDK, we need to both setup the environment and do the relocation necessary on the native sysroot in the SDK copy of the buildsystem.

It is expected that the relocation can be accomplished using uninative.

Should be in as of:

The way to test this would be to build a sdk using "-c populate_sdk_ext" instead of "-c populate_sdk" and the toolchain should function.

Hi Randy,
I have this error when trying $ bitbake core-image-sato -c populate_sdk_ext

http://pastebin.com/uU02FUuW

Is this normal?

Hi Alex, nope it's not normal. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7467

I hope to fix that today.

Adding Yi as QA Contact. Also, the feature cannot be verified until bug 7467 will be fixed.

Thanks. I just saw bug 7467 filed by Yi last week, wasn't aware of the issue. Thanks for the update!
