By default, the ${PN}-dev package of a recipe depends on the ${PN}
package. However, since the bcm2835 package contains no file, it is not
generated. As a result, when trying to include bcm2835-dev in an image
(or another package that depends on bcm2835-dev, such as
bcm2835-staticdev), we receive an error message saying that the bcm2835
package is not found.
A solution would be to define ALLOW_EMPTY for bcm2835, so that an empty
package is generated. However, that would causes a useless package to
be installed on the target. This patch uses another solution, which is
to empty the RDEPENDS variable of bcm2835-dev, so that it doesn't pull
in bcm2835.
Fixes #22

Description
This is the general hardware specific BSP overlay for the RaspberryPi device.
More information can be found at: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ (Official Site)
The core BSP part of meta-raspberrypi should work with different OpenEmbedded/Yocto distributions and layer stacks, such as:
- Distro-less (only with OE-Core).
- Angstrom.
- Yocto/Poky (main focus of testing).
Dependencies
This layer depends on:
-
URI: git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
- branch: master
- revision: HEAD
-
URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
- layers: meta-oe, meta-multimedia, meta-networking, meta-python
- branch: master
- revision: HEAD
Quick Start
- source poky/oe-init-build-env rpi-build
- Add this layer to bblayers.conf and the dependencies above
- Set MACHINE in local.conf to one of the supported boards
- bitbake rpi-hwup-image
- dd to a SD card the generated sdimg file (use xzcat if rpi-sdimg.xz is used)
- Boot your RPI.
