tree/branch: poky/denzil commit: d20a24310eb43fed9a3f3e75752c9ad45a18cbe4 With denzil, I find that xf86-input-synaptics fails to do_configure with non-x86 targets, including qemumips, qemuarm, qemuppc. It reports that "xorg-server development files" is missed. Detailed error log as below: ####### DEBUG: SITE files ['endian-little', 'bit-32', 'arm-common', 'common-linux', 'common-glibc', 'arm-linux', 'arm-linux-gnueabi', 'common'] ERROR: Function failed: do_configure (see /home/jxu49/osel/poky/build/tmp/work/armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi/xf86-input-synaptics-2_1.5.0-r17.2/temp/log.do_configure.12410 for further information) automake (GNU automake) 1.11.2 Copyright (C) 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

It could be a parallelism issue. I built the latest master and a branch checked out from the commit you mentioned, on all architectures, without any issues. I use: BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "8" PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 8" What settings do you have?
I also tested with: BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "2" PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 2" Could not reproduce... Please give more details about how to reproduce it.
(In reply to comment #2) > I also tested with: BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "2" PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 2" Could > not reproduce... Please give more details about how to reproduce it. My OS is 32bit Ubuntu 10.04. And my system is a 8 processors with 4GB memory installed. I think it may not be related to parallelism since I use 9 for BB_NUMBER_THREADS and PARALLEL_MAKE by default. But with the other number, like 2, the issue could be reproduced also.
Hi Laurentiu, Do we have an update regarding this? Thanks, Alex.
I succeeded to reproduce this using the commit mentioned in the bug report and doing a build for mips: MACHINE=qemumips bitbake xf86-input-synaptics However, this does not reproduce on the latest tree. So, closing the issue.
Verified.
