[oe] package gobject-introspection-native-0.9.10-r0: task do_compile: Failed

[Gregor Rudorfer]

Hi

I have a problem building Angstrom based packages:

I've tried building:

beagleboard-demo-image
angstrom-gnome-image
angstrom-gnome-image-big
angstrom-x-image

all failed at multiple packages. I used bitbake -k so all packages which 
can be built were built, regardless
if errors occurred.

F.e. the beagleboard-demo-image had the following errors

ERROR:

I was able to solve most of these errors, because most of them were only 
missing links i.e. the SRC_URI links in the .bb files
weren't correct.

At the end I was left with those errors, which seem not to be a easy fix.

Especially the failure of gobject-introspection_0.9.10.bb gives me 
headaches.

I'm searching google for a solution for over 4 hours now. I've tried out 
different solutions but all didn't work.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

My build configuration is as follows:

BB_VERSION        = "1.12.0"
METADATA_BRANCH   = "master"
METADATA_REVISION = "fd43377"
TARGET_ARCH       = "arm"
TARGET_OS         = "linux-gnueabi"
MACHINE           = "adb4000"
DISTRO            = "angstrom"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "v2013.03"
TARGET_FPU        = "soft"

As you can see my machine is a adb4000. Although it's fully supported by 
OE, the Angstrom online
buildtool (Narcissus) [1] obviously doesn't support it. So I can't use a 
image from the Narcissus online builder.
I've successfully ran the opie-image on this board  without any problems.

My second question is:

Is there a central configuration file somewhere, which tells bitbake 
what recipes it has to compile into an
image? Because I'm thinking of removing those packages, which aren't 
absolutely necessary, so that
I can get a working image in the shortest time as possible. F.e. I don't 
need firefox, ghostscript, the
fast fourier transform package (fftwf) and pulseaudio.
Is there a possibility to do so?
