Subject: bblayers.conf is required?
Date: Mon, 09 Apr 2012 07:03:42 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F82DE2E.30208@mlbassoc.com> (raw)
The config file conf/bblayers.conf seems to be required:
$ bitbake core-image-minimal
Unable to find conf/bblayers.conf
BitBake must be run from within your build directory: /home/local/p60_poky
but the bitbake documentation says otherwise:
<para>BitBake will first search the current working directory for an optional "conf/bblayers.conf" configuration file. This file is expected to contain a BBLAYERS
variable which is a space delimited list of 'layer' directories. For each directory in this list, a "conf/layer.conf" file will be searched for and parsed with the LAYERDIR
variable being set to the directory where the layer was found. The idea is these files will setup BBPATH and other variables correctly for a given build directory automatically for
the user.</para>
Maybe the documentation should just read "required" instead of "optional"?
