Stalled with setting up Yocto 1.5 on CentOS 6.4 with Python 2.7.3

Stalled with setting up Yocto 1.5 on CentOS 6.4 with Python 2.7.3

[ben]

Hi all,

This is my first foray into embedded linux Yocto-Style.

I've got an RPM for Python2.7 installed that doesn't trash my system (which needs 2.6.6).

But the initial 'source oe-init-build-env' doesn't work...

Google is not helping me find a definitive page to instruct getting around this (looked on wiki too).

Little help?

Thanks

be explicit about errors, and attach them to your post so folks can get a better idea
to help you.

I've had the best results using the buildtools-tarball that yocto itself
can produce. Use a more recent host to 'bitbake buildtools-tarball', then
execute the shell archive it puts in tmp/deploy/sdk/ on the CentOS 5 or 6
machine, and source its setup script before sorucing oe-init-build-env.
