Re: [Gumstix-users] Can't Build System Checkout for Gumstix [ Again ]

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

I've been trying to do a fresh install of the openembedded build system following the gumstix.org instructions on a Ubuntu 11.10 system. So I set bash as the preferred shell. These are the things that I have noted
Having pulled the basic openembedded and bitbake (1.12) I had an initial failure building pcre. Modified the system.conf file. the next failure was building native openssl . Bibtabke had pulled 1.0.0d I have 1.0.0.e installed. Modified and added openssl-native to the conf file. Now it is failing with fakeroot. it is trying to pull 1.9.6 off the debian ftp site. This is old and no longer hosted on the site. i have found a patch on the patch.openembedded.org site but am unsure how to apply it (This was the same issue with openssl)
So how do you use the patches off patch.openembedded.org. Where do you save them? How do you apply them?
thanks
Garry Allen

Neglecting to do this will cause target system init file corruption and your build image will not boot! Run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash" and answer no when asked whether you want to install dash as /bin/sh.
