I have same issue on fedora 17, make it works for my host with
below temporary tweak:
diff --git meta/classes/cml1.bbclass meta/classes/cml1.bbclass
index bd25311..948cfad 100644
--- meta/classes/cml1.bbclass
+++ meta/classes/cml1.bbclass
@@ -15,6 +15,7 @@ HOSTLDFLAGS = "${BUILD_LDFLAGS}"
HOST_LOADLIBES = "-lncurses"
python do_menuconfig() {
+ d.setVar("HOSTLDFLAGS", "")
oe_terminal("${SHELL} -c \"make menuconfig; echo 'Pausing for
5 seconds'; sleep 5\"", '${PN} Configuration', d)
}
do_menuconfig[depends] += "ncurses-native:do_populate_sysroot"
---
FYI.
