Hi

We tried to make images with openpli - some mistakes are in the git- openmoko is unavailable, so it stuck at opkg-utils

I found that fix for openembedded:
http://patches.opene...rg/patch/22853/


The binutils_2.21.tar.bz2 are not on the place shown in the pli-git:
This can be downloaded here:
http://mirrors.usc.e...b/gnu/binutils/

Maybe this can be fixed in the actual openpli?

So we can search after the next errors (little joke by me...)

Hi

Found the next one...

In ...recipes/libpng/libpng.inc you have to change the url to ftp://ftp.simplesystems.org/pub/png/src/history/libpng15/

[offnow]

Hm, no edit possible...

The next one - git

In /recipes/git/git.inc you have to change to http://kakola.googlecode.com/files/

[offnow]

And another...

/recipes/udev/attr-2.44.bb

change the url to http://download.sava.../releases/attr/

just wait a few days , i'll put necessary files on my server and i'll give the direct link (a folder that contains all of them) to PLi team so everbody can use them easily

[offnow]

Hi

That is the better solution - this degenrates into the labor(hopefully not too german english...)

Then this is ending here - do not know if the pli-team will recognise it and put the working sources-links into the git (???)

[mrk72]

The attached patches will correct Your issues.

Patch 0001 will update libpng to version 1.5.10, because 1.5.5 has an security issue an has been deleted.

Patch 0002 corrects the SRC_URI to bitbake macro KERNELORG_MIRROR

Patch 0003 is also required by patch 0002 and sets KERNELORG_MIRROR to a mirror service, which copies kernel.org-ftp site.
This is necessary, because on http - kernel.org many files are missing.

Patch 0004 sets download url to savannah.

Apply them with

patch -p1 < patch-file

Thank you

That´s a much easier way...

This try and error method from me isn´t a much productive solution

[Persian Prince]

it seems that "ftp.ayamura.org" doesn't work for "binutils-2.21-tar.bz2"

correct me if i'm wrong

Hi

Me too - a working link
http://mirrors.usc.e...b/gnu/binutils/

Maybe I have to learn how to make patches... ähäm...

The patches from mrk72 are in the pli-git, so the most things are working well now I think ( I started testing 5 min ago...)

The server of Persian Prince with the sources is working well too - so we can have fun while building images

[offnow]

For the nonworking opkg-utils
http://code.google.c...source/checkout

but I do not know, how a working SRC_URI line would look like

[mrk72]

Try the patch attached for opkg-utils

[offnow]

While doing the patch I get an error
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! (I have to learn about patching files - so maybe the error is by me... )

I deleted the old files by hand and it is working fine then...

[mrk72]

Oh no, sorry my fault.
I have inspected the patch again an found out, that my local git was not original while generating the patch.
By the way I also forgot to include the old package-patches.
I don't really know if they are still necessary, but I included them now.
So the new patch should be the one to include in git.

To correct Your local git please do a

bitbake -b openembedded/recipes/opkg-utils/opkg-utils_git.bb -c clean

delete the new opkg-utils_git.bb,
copy the attached opkg-utils_svn.bb (it's the original, which You have deleted)

then apply the new patch (0006a) and try again.

worked perfect for me...

I think 7025 need some old package (???) - it is running now for this machine... we will see

[mrk72]

sounds good, so now it can go into git!

Which old package?
opkg-utils is a native packages for your host and not installed in the STB...

[offnow]

Hi

It says - while compiling - old-package sqlzma3.2-r2b.tar.bz...

this is the only old-package entry I found... (???) - do not know if this is meant...

many questionmarks here...

[mrk72]

Well now I see Your issue, I do not compile for dm7025, therefore I did not stumble on this.

The 'old' package is a kernel patch to integrate lzma compression in squashfs (a flash filesystem) for kernel 2.6.12.
Old package means, that the distro slax, does not support it any more.

I found out that the download url of that is down, too.
Here a patch, which uses a still remain mirror.

rofl - I had stolen it from my original dream-sources-folders... so there was no error while compiling it - I searched about it in the work-folder

Ouha - I see I am far away from amateur with my knowledge... filesystems, kernel and patching it... and thousand other things...

madwifi for dm8000 should be fixed too cause you can't find 2008 packages in http://snapshots.mad.../madwifi-trunk/ when it says :

Note: Snapshots are only generated in case there have been changes to madwifi-trunk since the last snapshot. Snapshots are kept for no longer than 90 days.
