[oe] Getting started with OE

[Will Newton]

Hi,

I'm trying to follow the getting started guide on the OE wiki, and
I've run into a few problems.

I'm using the OE tree from Holger's git mirror because monotone is
having problems updating the tree for me (slow speed and eventual
connection drop).

I can get as far as the "bitbake nano" step. First I get this error:

ERROR: 'module' object has no attribute 'get_srcrev' while parsing
/home/wnewton/src/oe/org.openembedded.dev/packages/packagekit/packagekit_git.bb

It doesn't seem to be fatal though as the build continues.

Then I get this:

NOTE: Preparing Runqueue
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/bitbake", line 117, in <module>

  File "/usr/bin/bitbake", line 113, in main

in mark_active
    if runq_build[listid] == 1:
IndexError: list index out of range

I suspect using the git mirror is probably not supported, but I was
wondering if anyone could help me debug this?

Thanks,
