[bitbake-devel] Bitbake hangs when there is no response from remote PR server

[anders.tornqvist at codiax.se]

Hi,

When using Bitbake from Poky Sumo I noticed that bitbake hangs forever if there is PRSERV_HOST configured to a another host and that does not answer to the requests.
It does not timeout and gives no error message.

A possible solution could be to change the handling the limit of the retries in lib/bb/main.py setup_bitbake().
Currently the time-out for a not responding PRSERV_HOST does not seem to count down the retries. It just keeps on retrying.

/Anders
