Description Ted 2015-01-21 20:32:09 UTC

I twice attempted to build an image for the cubox-i. My build machine was a dual core AMD low end PC (Ubuntu 14.10) and the target machine was an imx6 cubox-i. I wanted to use apt-get and dpkg command so used PACKAGE_CLASSES=package_deb which appeared to work for a long time but then concluded with the following:

ERROR: Unable to install packages. Command '/home/ted/fsl-community-bsp/build/tmp/sysroots/i686-linux/usr/bin/apt-get install --force-yes --allow-unauthenticated psplash packagegroup-core-x11-base apt dpkg packagegroup-base-extended packagegroup-core-boot' returned 100:

Hi Ted,

I built cubox-i with core-image-x11 using poky master (e2cffc00e1ea1b2d8bd5143f4d8ff56501b7e3f7) and meta-fsl-arm{,-extra} master and dind't fail.

Here is my conf:

MACHINE ??= "cubox-i"
LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST = "commercial"
ACCEPT_FSL_EULA = "1"
PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_deb"
EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES = "debug-tweaks package-management"

Do you are using master branch?

Best regards,

    alimon

We believe this issue was fixed in the master branch and believe you were likely not using this. We're therefore resolving as WORKSFORME, please reopen if there is more info available.
