I managed to create a rudimentary recipe file that grabs the tar ball from the local disk and attempts to compile using: host $ bitbake -f -c compile example >From the output I infer that the tar ball got unpacked and a make executed in the source code tree. However, my build fails because a number of libraries are missing. For example, the libuuid library seems not to be found. How do I verify that this library is available in my Yocto tree? If not, how to determine what recipe do I need to build to get it installed? How do I make sure that the header files for the library are also installed? I'm assuming that once a library is built using the right bitbake recipe, it is available to the code that calls it. If not, how is that configured? Thank you, Rafael
