Here is a recipe that I using to generate a custom SDK image which I can use to natively compile mono on the target.
require recipes-sato/images/core-image-sato-sdk.bb IMAGE_INSTALL += "bison libtool" PR="r0" bison is required and I added libtool because it was being generated by mono's autoconf (./configure) script and gave the following error: libtool: link: cannot find the library `=/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la' or unhandled argument `=/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.la' If I understand correctly, yocto has a special libtool which understands how to handle '=/path/to/lib' The problem is that it looks like 'libtool' is not included in the image. I do have the libtool recipe in meta/recipes-devtools/libtool The libtool version generated by mono was 2.2.6b The libtoolize version in the image is 2.4 (automake 1.11.1, autoconf 2.68) Am I doing something wrong? If not, where is the 'libtool' in the image?
