Hi,

I created a yocto group and user for performing these builds.

The yocto user has the basic Ubuntu default account ( comes from a simple useradd ... )


I verified that this user is able to perform the exact same bitbake -c devshell gettext that fails for other username ( same exact location on the filesystem after a sudo chgrp -R yocto $directory && sudo chmod -R g+rw $directory ).

I'm guessing something is going wrong with the fakeroot command as I'm now seeing the terminal show up for just a second and then close when I try running this devshell as my original username.

I'm not sure which setting in my bash shell is causing this error so I'm all ears for any suggestions.

What are you expecting to happen?  'devshell' is just that - a shell
environment (e.g. bash) where you are set up to "develop" (tinker, explore,
etc) the given recipe.
I think Jimi is saying that it doesn't appear to be launching a separate
terminal / shell. Right?

Assuming that's what's happening, the devshell code is supposed to print out
an error when it can't launch a suitable terminal, but if the terminal isn't
doing what it should then that might leave you in this situation. Does
log.do_devshell for the recipe indicate anything?

Cheers,
Paul
