To bring this full circle... if you want to build behind a restrictive firewall using pre-mirrored sources and BB_NO_NETWORK, be aware that recipes which:
1. Specify a git repo as the source, and, 2. Specify the revision to be built using a tag name will cause your build to abort when bitbake tries to run 'git ls-remote' to resolve the tag name. So don't specify SRC_URI like this: SRC_URI = "git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git;protocol=git;tag=v${PV}" Instead, use: SRC_URI = "git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git;protocol=git;tag=8885ced062131214448fae056ef453f094303805;branch=master" I added a note about this to the Wiki: - http://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/How_do_I#Non-networked_Builds_and_Cached_Git_Respositories I'm still new to Yocto, so someone please chime in if any of this information is incorrect... _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
