[poky] got error while trying to pull the krb5 package into poky

[v sailaja]

Hi  Hatle,


I need to pull krb5 into poky. But *Krb5 rpm is not created* at the build
time.
its as stated below:

*Not creating empty RPM package for krb5.*

so that the rpm was not creating for krb5.
Please tell me what are the dependencies and How to resolve this problem. I
need to pull it into poky.
Your explanation gave me an idea on krb5.



Thanks & Regards,
SAI
