<br />
<br />
=== KOAN sas - Italy ===<br />
<br />
We provide training courses '''at the customer's facilities''' worldwide or at our office in '''Bergamo, Italy''' focused on Linux embedded, OpenEmbedded, Yocto Project, Device drivers and Qt library.<br />
We have an advanced level course focusing on '''OpenEmbedded''' build environment and '''Yocto Project'''.<br />
This course provides the necessary information to configure and use Openembedded, git and bitbake to build an embedded linux distribution from scratch. It will also cover the full management of recipes overlay using custom layers.<br />
<br />
The objective of KOAN courses is to supply to the participants a complete technical preparation that puts them in the position to managing the job or the whole project in autonomy.<br />

=== Sidebranch - The Netherlands ===<br />
<br />
We provide training-on-the-job to bring your team up to speed with technologies like OpenEmbedded Core and Yocto Project to realize your next Linux product. We are experienced with board-bring up, boot loader modifications, firmware upgrade and provisioning, device driver development, application design, FPGA design and board design services. Typically we engage early during the architectural phase to help make system-wide decisions on hardware and software, and help you get up to speed with all involved technologies. Your team can make a quick-start on realizing the core application, while the team members learn how an Embedded Linux project is realized with OpenEmbedded and Yocto Project. Our OpenEmbedded training is on-the-job meaning we take the hardware used in your project and focus on things that need to be done for the project realization.<br />
<br />
We work with international customers, either on-site or remotely. We speak Dutch and English and read German. The founder of Sidebranch, Leon Woestenberg, has over 20 years experience with Linux and over 10 years experience with OpenEmbedded.<br />

<hr />
<div>OpenEmbedded Developers' Meeting 2010 will be in Cambridge, UK on the 29th and 30th of October. This is after http://www.embeddedlinuxconference.com/elc_europe10/index.html and will be held in the same place, the University Arms Hotel (http://www.devere.co.uk/our-locations/university-arms).<br />
<br />
All developers and other interested parties are welcome.<br />
<br />
== Location ==<br />
<br />
Call ... if you get hopelessly lost.<br />
<br />
== Registration ==<br />
<br />
Due to restricted space at the venue, the number of attendees is strictly limited.<br />
<br />
== Agenda Suggestions ==<br />
<br />
* FM: I would like to suggest a discussion on recipe quality and how to improve it. I must say that I am somewhat disappointed by the number of recipes that do not fetch or do not patch. How are we going to handle this<br />
* FM: related to the previous: how to deal with orphaned recipes, distros and machines<br />
* FM: suggest to re-institute the MAINTAINERS field, at least for distro and machine conf files but preferably also in recipes. Currently it is often not clear who maintains what<br />
* FM: review/commit/revert policy (e.g. formalize the suggestion that NAKs need to be motivated and that submitted patches can be pushed if there is no neg feedback within say 2 weeks (even if there is no feedback at all).<br />
* FM: maybe discuss the testing branch/procedures<br />
* FM: usage of DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = "-1" (and more concrete: the creation of new recipes with DP = -1, that never seem to loose its DP)<br />
*Khem: Libtool 2.4 upgrade.<br />
*Khem: bitbake world. What do we do ?<br />
*Khem: patchwork workflow<br />
*Khem: Security updates how to handle<br />
*Khem: Make LICENSE field mandatory in recipes<br />
*Khem: Time based releases ( one a year)<br />
*Hrw: recipes/ subdirectories (all "inherit opie" or "inherit palmtop" -> recipes/opie/ dir etc)<br />
*RP: srctree, srcrev mess, pain with linux-wrs - time to rework the scm fetchers?<br />
*LW: the recipe owner needs to well understand class implementation details, no consistency, no documentation, and subject to change.<br />
*LW: BB2 and OE2 from scratch?<br />
<br />

<br />
==Travel==<br />
<br />
London Stansted airport is the nearest to Cambridge with regular service. (There is a small airport in Cambridge itself but I don't think any scheduled airlines operate from there anymore.)<br />
<br />
For those travelling from Europe, Stansted is about a 30-minute train ride from Cambridge city centre and is served by Air Berlin, Ryanair and Germanwings among others. Luton airport is about 1 hour away by bus and is served by Easyjet.<br />
<br />
For those travelling from further away, most long-haul flights arrive at Heathrow or Gatwick airports (although there is some transatlantic service into Stansted). Both Heathrow and Gatwick are about 2 hours from Cambridge by train or bus: the train is quicker but involves several changes in London, whereas the bus is slow but cheaper and less complicated.<br />
<br />
If arriving at LHR airport, take the Piccadilly line from the Underground station and ride it all the way to Kings Cross St Pancras. Ascend to street level, follow signs to Kings Cross mainline station (not St Pancras: the two stations are different although they share a subway stop) and then look for trains to Cambridge or Kings Lynn on the departure board. There are usually two fast services and two slow services to Cambridge per hour: the slow trains are often overtaken by the fast ones en route so it may be best to wait for a fast service even if this is not the next to depart.<br />
<br />
If arriving at LCY, take the DLR to Bank, then change to the Northern Line northbound. From Kings Cross St Pancras, proceed as for LHR, above.<br />

<br />
Alternatively you can take the Eurostar to London St Pancras, which is 50 minutes from Cambridge by train. <br />

<div>OpenEmbedded Developers' Meeting 2010 will be in Cambridge, UK on the 29th and 30th of October. This is after http://www.embeddedlinuxconference.com/elc_europe10/index.html.<br />
<br />
All developers and other interested parties are welcome.<br />
<br />
== Location ==<br />
<br />
Call ... if you get hopelessly lost.<br />
<br />
== Registration ==<br />
<br />
Due to restricted space at the venue, the number of attendees is strictly limited.<br />

== Agenda ==<br />
<br />
=== Friday ===<br />
<br />
====OpenEmbedded eV General Assembly====<br />
<br />
This is the formal eV meeting. Principal topics are financial reports, the board election, and voting in of new members.<br />

<br />
=== Saturday ===<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
==Travel==<br />
<br />
London Stansted airport is the nearest to Cambridge with regular service. (There is a small airport in Cambridge itself but I don't think any scheduled airlines operate from there anymore.)<br />
<br />
For those travelling from Europe, Stansted is about a 30-minute train ride from Cambridge city centre and is served by Air Berlin, Ryanair and Germanwings among others. Luton airport is about 1 hour away by bus and is served by Easyjet.<br />
<br />
For those travelling from further away, most long-haul flights arrive at Heathrow or Gatwick airports (although there is some transatlantic service into Stansted). Both Heathrow and Gatwick are about 2 hours from Cambridge by train or bus: the train is quicker but involves several changes in London, whereas the bus is slow but cheaper and less complicated.<br />
<br />
If arriving at LHR airport, take the Piccadilly line from the Underground station and ride it all the way to Kings Cross St Pancras. Ascend to street level, follow signs to Kings Cross mainline station (not St Pancras: the two stations are different although they share a subway stop) and then look for trains to Cambridge or Kings Lynn on the departure board. There are usually two fast services and two slow services to Cambridge per hour: the slow trains are often overtaken by the fast ones en route so it may be best to wait for a fast service even if this is not the next to depart.<br />
<br />
If arriving at LCY, take the DLR to Bank, then change to the Northern Line northbound. From Kings Cross St Pancras, proceed as for LHR, above.<br />

<br />
Alternatively you can take the Eurostar to London St Pancras, which is 50 minutes from Cambridge by train. <br />

BitBake is, at its simplest, a tool for executing tasks and managing metadata. As such, its similarities to GNU make and other build tools are readily apparent. It was inspired by Portage, the package management system used by the Gentoo Linux distribution. <br />
<br />
BitBake is the basis of the OpenEmbedded project, which is being used to build and maintain a number of embedded Linux distributions, including OpenZaurus and Familiar.<br />

<div>See [[Required software]] for the list of the software required by Openembedded.<br />
<br />
= Using OpenEmbedded on Linux systems =<br />
<br />
== deb-based distributions ==<br />
<br />
The easiest way is via [http://blog.leggewie.org/?p=39 apt-get'able Openembedded] which will pull the OE meta-data for you and keep it up-to-date. Plus, it makes sure all necessary software for cross-compilation is installed. Easy as 1-2-3.<br />
<br />
=== Debian ===<br />
<br />
==== Mandatory packages ====<br />
<br />
apt-get install ccache sed wget cvs subversion git-core \<br />
coreutils unzip texi2html texinfo libsdl1.2-dev docbook-utils \<br />
gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++<br />
<br />
'''Git'''<br />
<br />
On debian you may have to run <br />
<br />
update-alternatives --config git (as root)<br />
<br />
and select /usr/bin/git-scm to provide git instead of /usr/bin/git.transition. This is not necessary in sid<br />
<br />
==== Supplimentary packages ====<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
apt-get install libxml2-utils xmlto python-psyco<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
<br />
OPTIONAL: these packages and their dependencies need to be installed in order to build the bitbake documentation (warning: over 160MB of installed packages).<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
apt-get install docbook<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
This package is necessary to build some packages (in particular the esound documentation needs it).<br />
<br />
=== Ubuntu ===<br />
<br />
Ubuntu is based on Debian and instructions above for [[#deb-based distributions|Debian]] apply here as well. Make sure that you have the universe repositories in your apt configuration.<br />
<br />
* Check that /bin/sh (ls -l /bin/sh) is not symbolically linked to dash. "dash" is a POSIX compliant shell that is much smaller than "bash" -- however some broken shell scripts still make use of bash extensions while calling into /bin/sh. To work around this issue call "''sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash''" and select No when it asks you to install dash as /bin/sh.<br />
* You can also install Psyco Python JIT compiler to speed up BitBake. Psyco works on 32-bit x86 platforms only. "''aptitude install python-psyco''<br />
* there are known [[gcc issues in Intrepid and later]] when cross-compiling with OE<br />
<br />
== rpm-based distributions ==<br />
<br />
=== Mandriva Linux ===<br />
<br />
Follow the Debian instructions, only using `urpmi` instead of `apt-get install`. Also, `ccache` is not an official Mandriva package. You can find it in the contrib section of any Mandriva mirror or seach for it using the Mandriva Club rpm database [http://rpms.mandrakeclub.com]. You may need libpythonV.V-devel for bitbake setup instead of python-dev.<br />
If you're building a 2.6 kernel, you also need the glibc-static-devel package.<br />
<br />
with Mandriva Linux 2006, you need to issue the following command:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
urpmi python python-devel python-psyco ccache patch m4 sed bison make wget bzip2 \<br />
cvs gawk glibc-devel gcc-c++ subversion sharutils coreutils docbook-utils openjade \<br />
quilt pcre-devel unzip glibc-static-devel<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
=== openSUSE instructions ===<br />
<br />
Use zypper to install the required packages:<br />
<br />
zypper in subversion git python help2man diffstat wget gcc gcc-c++ libstdc++ glibc-devel<br />
<br />
These packages may be useful as well: ccache, bison and [http://software.opensuse.org/search?baseproject=ALL&p=1&q=gcc33 gcc33] (for faster build using ASSUME_PROVIDED), gtk2-devel (in case your build will fail on missing gdk-pixbuf-csource), bc (for collie kernel), ncurses-devel (if you want to call kernel menuconfig). python psyco package is optional.<br />
<br />
=== Fedora ===<br />
<br />
==== Fedora Core 2/3 ====<br />
Much of the following is probably already installed, but you can check with the following commands. You may want to use the yum.conf located at http://www.fedorafaq.org/. Note, this has not been tested yes as I am in the process of setting up a development environment.<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki> yum install python patch m4 sed make docbook* openjade glibc-devel xmlto</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
* `yum install ccache` (not required, also not a FC3 package)<br />
<br />
* psyco: Download psyco-1.4-src.tar.gz (or later) and extract it. Go to the psycho top-level directory and run: `python setup.py install`.<br />
<br />
* patch: FC3 default version should be enough. Optionally, install SuSe 9.1 package of it.<br />
<br />
==== Fedora Core 4 ====<br />
Almost all required packages for Openembedded are available in Fedora Core 4 and the Fedora Extras for Core 4. You can download them from <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core> and <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/extras>. Check <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/4> for updates on the Core 4 packages.<br />
<br />
Apart from the usual (native) development packages like gcc and binutils, you should check that you have the following RPM's installed: <br />
<br />
* bison<br />
* ccache (not required, but advised to speed up building)<br />
* docbook* packages<br />
* libpcre<br />
* m4<br />
* make<br />
* openjade<br />
* patch<br />
* PyQt<br />
* python<br />
* python-psyco<br />
* sed<br />
* xmlto<br />
* quilt (not required as OE builds it by itself, but install it if you want to use gquilt)<br />
<br />
Use apt, synaptic, up2date or yum to automagically retrieve these packages or download and install them manually (lots of work).<br />
<br />
==== Fedora Core 5/6 ====<br />
<br />
Commands I used to install OE pre-requisites on FC5/6<br />
<br />
This long command will ensure all pre-requisites are installed (patch is 2.5.4, not 2.5.9, but appears to work).<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
su -c "yum install python m4 make wget curl ftp cvs subversion tar bzip2 gzip unzip python-psyco ccache perl texinfo texi2html diffstat openjade docbook-style-dsssl docbook-style-xsl docbook-dtds docbook-utils sed bison bc glibc-devel gcc binutils pcre pcre-devel git quilt groff linuxdoc-tools patch gcc gcc-c++ python-sqlite2 help2man"<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
or download the metapackage http://www.openembedded.org/dl/packages/rpm/openembedded-essential-1.1-1.noarch.rpm (may be out of date).<br />
<br />
then do<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
su -c "yum localinstall openembedded-essential-1.1-1.noarch.rpm"<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
<br />
There are also rpm and src.rpm packages of bitbake 1.6.2 at http://www.openembedded.org/dl/packages/rpm/ pending a later version in Extras, currently 1.6.0.<br />
<br />
Update - Current FC6 version is patch-2.5.4-29.2.2 as of this writing and works-for-me (see revision history for build instructions if current patch does not work for you).<br />
<br />
I didn't install SGML tools. Please add if you know how<br />
<br />
Update - Since about 2002 sgml-tools has apparently been replaced by linuxdoc-tools for FC.<br />
<br />
==== Fedora 7 ====<br />
<br />
This long command will ensure all pre-requisites are installed (patch is 2.5.4, not 2.5.9, but appears to work).<br />
<br />

<br />
==== Fedora 11 ====<br />
<br />
Fedora 11, compared to previous versions, brings the need to install "glibc-static" as well:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />

<br />
=== CentOS 4.4 / Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 ===<br />
May also work for true EL4 or Scientific Linux - another RHEL rebuild<br />
<br />
Even with several optional and 3rd party yum repos enabled (centosplus, kbsingh, RPMforge/Dag, Dries) a number of required packages are too old or unavailable for CentOS4. [It should be possible to use other package managers including apt/synaptic, up2date, and smart to get the required packages. The following assumes yum.]<br />
<br />
I re-built the following SRPMS (with "$ rpmbuild --rebuild ..."):<br />
* boost-1.33.1-10.fc5.src.rpm<br />
* bitbake-1.6.2-1.src.rpm (Latest tarball from http://developer.berlios.de/projects/bitbake/ + modified spec from bitbake-1.6.0-2.fc7.src.rpm)<br />
<br />
Might also want to try the rpm and src.rpm packages of bitbake 1.6.2 at http://www.openembedded.org/dl/packages/rpm/ - I have not.<br />
<br />
Extra requirements for the builds included rpmdevtools, xmlto, and lynx.<br />
<br />
I put packages in a local repo so I can do "yum install ...", otherwise can do "yum localinstall foo.1.2.3.noarch.rpm ...". It may be necessary to temporarily set "gpgcheck=0" in /etc/yum.conf to avoid complaints about unsigned packages.<br />
<br />
For EL4 texi2html is available from the tetex package, currently tetex-2.0.2-22.EL4.7<br />
<br />
Note that the the metapackage http://www.openembedded.org/dl/packages/rpm/openembedded-essential-1.1-1.noarch.rpm<br />
should work except that it depends on texi2html.<br />
<br />
Instead as root do<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
# yum install bison ccache coreutils cvs docbook-utils gawk git-core \<br />
python quilt rpmlib sed subversion tetex texinfo unzip wget<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
I ended up with the following set of relevant packages after several iterations of building/updating to get "bitbake nano" to complete successfully:<br />
<br />
* python-2.3.4-14.3<br />
* m4-1.4.1-16<br />

* gcc-c++ is virtual package and can be provided by gcc4.3-c++ (ALD 5.0) and gcc4.1-c++ (ALD 4.0/4.1). Just select higher version.<br />
<br />
=== Ark Linux 2008.1 ===<br />
[http://www.arklinux.org/ Ark Linux] is a modern distribution well suited for Openembedded development. Footprint only 2.1G.<br />
<br />
Required steps:<br />
<br />
1) install required packages<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
apt-get install devel-core diffstat texi2html cvs subversion git texinfo psyco python-devel \<br />
python-encodings python-sqlite help2man bitbake<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
2) upgrade<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
apt-get update<br />
apt-get dist-upgrade <br />
<br />
The following packages will be REPLACED:<br />
texi2html (by texlive-texi2html)<br />
The following NEW packages will be installed:<br />
texlive-texi2html<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
3) finally create your OE tree (see [[Getting started]] instructions). bitbake is already included, so you can skip that step.<br />
<br />

</nowiki></pre><br />
<br />
In Arch Linux the install command is in /bin/install. Since most of Linux distribution assume that install is located in /usr/bin/install, you have to create a symlink:<br />
<br />
<pre><nowiki><br />
sudo ln -s /bin/install /usr/bin/install<br />
</nowiki></pre><br />

== Using OpenEmbedded on Mac OS X ==<br />
<br />
By default OS X uses a filesystem that is '''not''' case sensitive. You need to ensure that at least your tmp directory is on a case sensitive filesystem or you may come across various packages that break, including the Linux kernel! These steps were carried out on a early 32 bit 10.5/Intel Mac - the install order matters for a couple of packages as does having them installed in a more normal location.<br />
<br />
# Register at [https://connect.apple.com ADC] and download and install Xcode<br />
# Compile and install [http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/ GNU gettext]<br />
# Using CPAN install Locale::gettext<br />
# Compile and install [http://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/ help2man 1.29] - newer versions will not build without hacks<br />
# Compile and install [http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/ wget], [http://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/ gawk], [http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/ coreutils] and [http://git-scm.com/ git] - wget appears to not work if you install it in /usr/local so use --prefix=/usr also note OS X provides a different version of mktemp which functions differently, be careful not to overwrite this as OS X might need it<br />
# If you are on a 32 bit Mac you can of course install [http://psyco.sourceforge.net/ psyco]<br />
# Fixup your PATH variable for your build user so that /usr/local/bin (or where ever coreutils etc is installed) comes before the OS X version in /usr/bin<br />
# Install GNU sed 3.0.2, this will give you a version of sed that allows you to build sed 4.1.5 - you will need to overwrite the one provided by OS X with --prefix=/usr and ensure you are using 4.1.5 not 3.0.2 as 3.0.2 does not provide various options you need<br />
# Install getopt from [http://software.frodo.looijaard.name/getopt/download.php here] - modify WITHOUT_GETTEXT=0 to WITHOUT_GETTEXT=1 in the Makefile and add -DWITHOUT_GETTEXT=$(WITHOUT_GETTEXT) to the line beginning with CPPFLAGS=<br />
<br />
Now follow the Getting Started OpenEmbedded wiki guide. Unfortunately there are various issues building on OS X that will most likely prevent the toolchain from building.<br />
