Description Mark Hatle 2011-03-18 11:42:53 UTC 
The arm patch that is part of Berkeley DB fails to apply.  A workaround patch was sent to the poky mailing list for bernard.  oe has a similar patch as well: http://git.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/openembedded/commit/?h=org.openembedded.dev&id=e35caa4763fab8f526c278437db7d8980a22d16d

It was suggested that we need a more general solution for fixing this kind of problem, where the ${S} location is not the root of what we want to patch.

Applied to master and bernard: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=94786e172d1de6771f9ed6bb9b0184f7e7fdf382
