"bitbake -v core-image-minimal" for qemuarm hangs on building qemu

[Robert P. J. Day]

  sadly, i must run off for socializing so i can't debug for a few
hours but, from scratch, i tried to build a core-image-minimal for
qemuarm on my 64-bit, fully-updated ubuntu 12.04 system, and for the
second straight time, it's hung at:

NOTE: package qemu-native-0.15.1-r9: task do_populate_sysroot: Succeeded
NOTE: Running noexec task 1194 of 1561 (ID: 71, virtual:native:/home/rpjday/oe/oe-core/meta/recipes-devtools/qemu/qemu_0.15.1.bb, do_build)

(hang)

  i've configured for 4 threads and that level of parallel make.  this
has always worked before.  i have a fully git-pulled oe-core and
bitbake.

  "top" shows a couple git processes running, but i've configured
local.conf to allow fetching from the network so i'm not sure what
it's after, if that's the issue.

  i'm sure it's something annoyingly simple.  back in a while.

Have you the full log (see tmp/cooker.log*)? The above says what ran but
not what is currently running. If you hit ctrl+c, you should see which
task was hanging. Was it gthumb?

Cheers,

  i tried a "bitbake -c fetchall" and it appeared to hang trying to
git pull gcc, but it worked later.  i'll try again this morning just
to play it safe, but it might have been just one of those aberrations.
