Description Alexandru Georgescu 2012-09-26 15:09:45 UTC
In the quick start documantation http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html for the Fedora needed packages, the glib-gettextize is among the list.

glib-gettextize is needed by ADT installer so I could not continue the installation. The installation continues though if I install the "glib2-devel" package.

I recently installed Fedora 17 (64 and 32bit) and it seems that glib-gettextize is not available anymore in the repository for both of the architectures.
Comment 1 Scott Rifenbark 2012-09-26 17:21:04 UTC
Does this mean that the build still requires glib-gettextize but it is no longer available as a package for Fedora?

Or, is the solution here to not require glib-gettextize but instead require glib2-devel?

glib-gettextize is a tool packaged in glib2-devel in modern fedora

Hi,
Sorry for the late response. Please see the comments inline.


Installing glib2-devel solved my problem since glib-gettextsize is not available as a package anymore in modern Fedora (as Ross said).

The packages sections were re-worked in the YP doc set.  The section in the QS now lists only the minimal set of packages required to build an image that can run on QEMU and has graphics support.  A new section was created in the YP Reference Manual that lists all packages by distro and by function.  The section in the QS manual references this new section in the reference manual.
