[OE-core] HOB: which host packages are needed

[Liu Ting-B28495]

Hi all,

We try to use poky in FC9. When trying to use HOB, the following ImportError appeared:

NOTE: Running setscene task 18 of 18 (/home/roy/CVS/poky/meta/recipes-devtools/quilt/quilt-native_0.48.bbo_populate_sysroot_setscene)
NOTE: package quilt-native-0.48-r0: task do_populate_sysroot_setscene: Started
NOTE: package quilt-native-0.48-r0: task do_populate_sysroot_setscene: Succeeded
NOTE: Executing RunQueue Tasks
NOTE: Tasks Summary: Attempted 126 tasks of which 126 didn't need to be rerun and 0 failed.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/roy/CVS/poky/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 238, in <module>
    ret = main()
  File "/home/roy/CVS/poky/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 173, in main
    ui_main = get_ui(configuration)
  File "/home/roy/CVS/poky/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 68, in get_ui
    module = __import__("bb.ui", fromlist = [interface])
  File "/home/roy/CVS/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/hob.py", line 21, in <module>
    import glib
ImportError: No module named glib

We installed python 2.6 from the source since the version 2.5 was shipped with FC9.

My question is:

(1)     Besides the glib module, what else is needed?

(2)     Is there a list of distro that hob was tested on, or which host packages are needed to run "hob"?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Best Regards,
Ting
