Created attachment 729 [details] m4-native do compile log When using Hob (with default settings / poky tree) in the build-appliance to make a qemux86-64 core-image-minimal it fails on compiling m4-native. Hob reports this build configuration: BB_VERSION = "1.15.1" TARGET_OS = "linux" MACHINE = "qemux86-64" DISTRO = "poky" DISTRO_VERSION = "1.2" TUNE_FEATURES = "m64" TARGET_FPU = "" meta meta-yocto Seems that build-appliance comes packaged with denzil. However when cloning the master tree in the image m4-native doesn't fail anymore. BB_VERSION = "1.15.3" TARGET_ARCH = "x86_64" TARGET_OS = "linux" MACHINE = "qemux86-64" DISTRO = "poky" DISTRO_VERSION = "1.2+snapshot-20120823" TUNE_FEATURES = "m64" TARGET_FPU = "" meta meta-yocto = "master:3fe5d090583e0f6d17e9523f876804883b63d04e" My build config used for bitbake build-appliance-image Build Configuration: BB_VERSION = "1.15.3" TARGET_ARCH = "x86_64" TARGET_OS = "linux" MACHINE = "qemux86-64" DISTRO = "poky" DISTRO_VERSION = "1.2+snapshot-20120823" TUNE_FEATURES = "m64" TARGET_FPU = "" meta meta-yocto = "(nobranch):8b8748c8f963900b83dc0fdd7757556f917fe4fd" Log attached.
So there are 2 things going on here, first the m4 failure, which I will investigate second is the building of denzil with the build appliance. The default for the build appliance is to include the latest release, I am working on a patch to move that to 1.2.1, and when we release 1.3 it will be updated again. If you are building the build appliance directly, then you can modify the SRCREV in the build_appliance_image.bb file to which every git hash you would like.
May have been a transient issue, while I could reproduce this with that version, I can not reproduce with the latest master, for now I am going to close this and if it re-appears we can reopen this bug and re-investigate
verified in 1.3 M4 RC4
