I wanted to generate a QtE SDK to use with my beaglebone black. For this, I followed the instructions here: http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom Once built, I installed the SDK by running angstrom-eglibc-i686-armv7a-vfp-neon-toolchain-qte-v2012.12.sh and used the default installation prefix. Qtopia is broken because /usr/local/oecore-i686/sysroots/armv7a-vfp-neon-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/share/qtopia and all its subdirs are missing the 'rx' permissions for groups and other. A simple "sudo find /usr/local/oecore-i686/sysroots/armv7a-vfp-neon-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/usr/share/qtopia/ -type d -exec chmod a+rx {} \;" fix the problem. I'm using angstrom-staging-yocto1.3 branch of openembedded-core, I didn't choose any revision or branch, the angstrom setup script did everything automatically, so I assumed this is a stable setup.
Same problem with include directory and libraries: sudo find /usr/local/oecore-i686/sysroots/armv7a-vfp-neon-angstrom-linux-gnueabi//usr/include/qtopia/ -type d -exec chmod a+rx {} \; sudo find /usr/local/oecore-i686/sysroots/armv7a-vfp-neon-angstrom-linux-gnueabi//usr/lib/qtopia/ -type d -exec chmod a+rx {} \;
I just built meta-toolchain-qte in latest poky and the directories are created with the proper permissions. Closing as WORKSFORME.
