[Openembedded-users] Newbie question

[James Ronald]

Dave,

I just went through this last week...

# The bitbake version distributed with Ubuntu 10.04 is too old
sudo apt-get remove bitbake
sudo apt-get autoremove

# Get the newest version
cd ~
wget http://download.berlios.de/bitbake/bitbake-1.10.1.tar.gz
tar -xvzf bitbake-1.10.1.tar.gz

# Install it into /usr/local
cd ~/bitbake-1.10.1/
sudo ./setup.py install --prefix=/usr/local


Regards
- Jim
