OE on Ubuntu 8.04?

OE on Ubuntu 8.04?

[Hans Henry von Tresckow]

Now that Ubuntu 8.04 has been released, I would like to upgrade my build
laptop. I was wondering if anybody has had any experience with 8.04 and
knows of any OE specific pitfalls to watch for. Thanks,

I have been using 8.04 (beta) for about a month now without any
issues. Go ahead

Thanks. I'll give it a whirl this weekend :)

I did some builds over the weekend (on x86-64), and apart from the
usual Ubuntu problem of /bin/sh -> dash (instead of bash)
everything worked fine.

Where does dash break your build?

I run my builds from dash and I think we should target for POSIX
compliance rather than bashism compliance.

I have seen reports on old glibc release build problems. There were
some patches too to get it working on dash.
