When running bitbake on a Poky master HEAD of today, the host distro Centos 7.2.1511 is not recognised as a tested host distribution. This contradicts the information at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/{latest,2.2}/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#detailed-supported-distros and the following list in meta-poky/conf/distro/poky.conf: SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS ?= " \ poky-1.8 \n \ poky-2.0 \n \ poky-2.1 \n \ poky-2.2 \n \ Ubuntu-14.04 \n \ Ubuntu-14.10 \n \ Ubuntu-15.04 \n \ Ubuntu-15.10 \n \ Ubuntu-16.04 \n \ Fedora-22 \n \ Fedora-23 \n \ Fedora-24 \n \ CentOSLinux-7.* \n \ Debian-8.* \n \ openSUSE-13.2 \n \ SUSELINUX-42.1 \n \ " Please fix, as it might be confusing to novice users. As a side note, it could be added as a comment that the test can be disabled by setting the variable to empty (text based upon CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URI comment): # The SANITY_TESTED_DISTROS list is used to compare the host distro against # to determine whether this distro was tested successfully. To disable the test, # set the variable to be empty. (note that "successfully" was misspelled in the CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URI comment)
