[bitbake-devel] Beginner help

[Paul Eggleton]

These are OE questions not bitbake; in future please post these to either
the openembedded-core at lists.openembedded.org or yocto at yoctoproject.org
mailing list. Could you also please not post unrelated questions in reply to
an existing thread - start a new thread instead.

This just means that no revision information could be determined for the
specified layer, i.e. it's not a git/svn/etc. repository. It's nothing to worry
about.

Please see the following manual section on how to add packages to an image:
