Maybe someone else can chip in, I don't build that way, so my environment isn't comparable with yours.

I use Ubuntu 2024LTS as the operating system, but my building environment is just like that of Wanwizard, so I can't really help you on your way.

I use the same method we use on our build servers, which I can't really share because it's of no use to you.
 
Furthermore, I have installed all the packages as listed in the wiki on my machine, otherwise I did not have to do any special things at all.
 
sudo apt install sed wget cvs subversion git-core git-lfs \
coreutils unzip texi2html texinfo docbook-utils \
gawk python3-distutils diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++ \

That is very difficult, we use automated build pipelines with all sorts of custom configuration and scripting, specific to our build server system.

 

Given the fact that building on Ubuntu 2024 LTS works ( I know Tech builds both develop and scarthgap images ) and the standard make file works fine on Debian ( also develop and scarthgap ), I don't think that is how the issue can be solved.

 

The issue must be related to your local configuration, if OE suddenly starts building RPM packages, that is outside of meta-openpli, and therefore outside our influence.

The fact that RPM packages are being built is indeed strange, especially because Ubuntu uses deb packages

It's not related to the host, you can configure OE to use rpm or deb instead of opkg, and perhaps there are specific packages that force that switch?

update-rc.d has rpm as a dependency, which needs rpm-native. Appearently even when it isn't used as package manager.

 

Do you have rpm tools installed on the host?

 

I build on Redhat, so I have everything available and am not representative.

Ubuntu 24.04 seems to have many errors for me when trying to build a PLi image. Ubuntu 24.04 is installed on a separate partition of my computer to see if it is something I want to migrate to later. Right now though, 24.04 is not a distribution I am interested in using for image building until it matures a bit.
 

Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS  is what I currently use to build PLi and OE type images. You should not have any problems with 20.04 Ubuntu if you setup correctly to build images.

Pretty much anyone can setup a compatible Ubuntu distro and image build with it using the command: MACHINE=<your machine here>  make image or make image feed. It will take somewhere between 7000 and roughly 20,000 steps to complete the image build. 
 

Build errors are common due to the number of steps involved for a successful build.  Being able to solve the errors is the difference between someone just building an image and someone knowing how to build an image.
 

As for rpm, a search shows many things being built in scarthgap with rpm somewhere in the path. Scarthgap builds but is not usable for the Octagon SF8008. The Scarthgap SF8008 image boots, but the resolution of the menus are way off. I am certain this will be corrected at some point.

Scartghgap is still a long way from ready, we're doing one box at the time.

Thanks to everyone working on Scarthgap! It will be a nice image once finished.

But for anyone trying Home builds, I would suggest trying the default branch, develop until Scarthgap matures a bit.

As said, it depends on the box, I've been running Scarthgap on my Solo 4K for months now.

I noticed something similar with my Uclan Ustym4kpro. The OSD was magnified by 4 and I only could see the left upper corner.

That was a driver issue (a driver from the year 2022) which required an enigma2 change(?) I recall.

FYI

 

 

Im getting this error now :(

 

ERROR: update-rc.d-0.8-r0 do_package: Fatal errors occurred in subprocesses:
Command '['/home/mypc/openpli-oe-core/build/tmp/work/all-oe-linux/update-rc.d/0.8-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdeps', '--alldeps', '--define', '__font_provides %{nil}', '/home/mypc/openpli-oe-core/build/tmp/work/all-oe-linux/update-rc.d/0.8-r0/packages-split/update-rc.d/usr/sbin/update-rc.d']' returned non-zero exit status 1.
Subprocess output:error: No file attributes configured

 

 

That problem is a tar command problem here:

https://github.com/o...ge.bbclass#L824

 

When I put the line in a try/except block

diff --git a/meta/classes/package.bbclass b/meta/classes/package.bbclass

     # replace RPATHs for the nativesdk binaries, to make them relocatable

Or remove the tar extract code

Then update-rc, base-files, initscript and linux-libc-headers do build.

But glibc and kernel do_package() stage are broken.

 

Tar is a hosttool, so that might explain the distro differences.

 

Kirkstone branch and up doesn't have that problem, because the code has been removed.

https://github.com/o...afa7f60ed6ad952

And the new code has no subprocess with 'tar' command.

 

And I noticed a compile error with gcc-runtime, and configure error with libxcrypt (not sure?).

 

So with Ubuntu 24.04, use Scarthgap (for now?).

I wouldn't recommend anyone to use the current Ubuntu (LTS) version to create images.

My recommendation regarding switching to the next higher version LTS Ubuntu would be at least a year after the release.

It cannot adhere to the timeline that Ubuntu sets for itself seriously and without errors.

Even with LTS 22.04, kernel updates from Ubuntu keep coming out which lead to system errors.
In particular, energy management and processor utilization are completely ruined.

After upgrading to a higher version, many errors are relatively easy to fix.
Based on the assumption that it is a normal PC or laptop in the home area, you will have to keep a close eye on the memory usage.
Nodejs
QT
Kodi
All things that can very quickly escalate the required RAM outside of the standard available ranges.

You mean so you don't have to install it afterwards?

 

Create an openpli-enigma2-image.bbappend in your meta_local, and add it to IMAGE_INSTALL ?
