How to setup Overo build environment on Mac OS X 10.5.5

[Crossley, Malcolm (GE EntSol, Intelligent Platforms)]

Hi Elvis,

 

I was pre-emptively researching this problem for you :-).

 

Openembedded is looking in the wrong locations for your wget and git
commands. Or in other words - OpenEmbedded does not have the same PATH
variable as your shell environment. 

 

To find where the command is located. 

Type: which git

 

Which returns:

/usr/local/bin/git

On my system 

 

Then add this line to your local.conf

export PATH_append ="/usr/local/bin"

for my example i.e. the bit in front of the git part.

 

I have never used Mac OS X so this may not work. 

The other thing you can do directly edit the "export PATH_prepend = "
line in the conf/bitbake.conf file.

 

Hope that helps

 

Malcolm

 

P.S. I have to cut the bottom of the email to stop it bouncing - there's
a 40KB limit on messages on this mailing list.

Hi Malcom,

                       I just installed wget-1.9 from source and it runs
correctly on Mac OS X. 

 

However, I still get some errors as shown below. What could the reason
be?

 

Best regards,
