Error while adding " libimxvpuapi2" and "gstreamer" pkgs in my local.conf for imx8mplus
This is different to the previous error. Yocto itself does not prevent the recipe from building, but something inside the component is producing an error during configuration. One of the screenshots m

The screenshot indicates the problem originates in libimxvpuapi2 recipe. So you should get more information by running 'bitbake libimxvpuapi2'. Alex

Possible to replace gcc-runtime libraries & libgcc

#yocto
#llvm
One more thought: would shipping gcc-runtime also trigger the 'provide the source code for everything that has been linked with it' then as required by all gpl versions? The exception frees you from t

Changing gcc to clang should be done for technical reasons, I would rather not give this advice to address what seems like an incomplete understanding of the licensing situation. Alex

This is literally the first time I hear about gcc exception not being good enough. Your legal team holds the ultimate authority, but it’s most certainly not common practice. How did they justify it? A

The GCC exception frees you from having to fulfil the terms of gpl3 in almost all cases. Links with details are easily obtainable with google search. Alex

distutils.bbclass: why is --install-data=${datadir} passed?

bitbake controlling memory use
I'd rather teach make/ninja upstream to watch memory consumption and/or host pressure directly (e.g. similar to how it handles -l). And offer any resulting patches to upstream first. Alex

There is; the source code for wic and its tests are fully available to you, so you are welcome to implement the missing bits and submit them for review and inclusion. Also, we do not have a wic mainta

bitbake controlling memory use
By all means please do. Everyone will benefit from teaching make to abstain from starting new processes if RAM is tight, even people with xeon/epyc grade hardware. It's not that I don't want to spend

Sorry guys, but this is venturing into the ridiculous. If you embark on building a whole Linux distribution, you need to start with the correct tools for it. Alex

bitbake controlling memory use
I have to note that even the most expensive 16 Gb RAM module is less than 100 Euro, and can be obtained for half that much. Surely you value your time more than that? Alex
