[poky] Errors attempting to build AT91SAM9x5 BSP

[Bryan Evenson]

Here is the original bblayers.conf file before I started creating my BSP:

# LAYER_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
# changes incompatibly
LCONF_VERSION = "6"

BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
BBFILES ?= ""

BBLAYERS ?= " \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta-yocto \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta-yocto-bsp \
  "

And here is what it looks like after adding my BSP layer:

# LAYER_CONF_VERSION is increased each time build/conf/bblayers.conf
# changes incompatibly
LCONF_VERSION = "7"

BBPATH = "${TOPDIR}"
BBFILES ?= ""

BBLAYERS ?= " \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta-yocto \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta-yocto-bsp \
  /media/sda3/yocto/poky-danny-8.0/meta-intellihood-qemu \
  "

Although, I just tried building again after changing the LCONF_VERSION back down to 6, and this time bitbake operates.  I know I'd tried that before and it hadn't worked.  The only difference that I can think of is that I've closed my terminal window and reopened it since my first posting and this one, which means I had to re-source the oe-init-build-env script.  Is it possible that this was causing my problems from before?

Thanks,
Bryan

What value was LCONF_VERSION at before you removed it? Also, could you send your bblayers.conf file?

Thanks,
