[Fuego] Error when building Fuego for the first time, Emdebian packages crossbuild-essential-armhf, gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf

[Thomas Preston]

Hi,
I'm seeing an issue when building the Fuego container for the first time. Step 52/53 fails when trying to install crossbuild-essential-armhf and gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf. These lines appear to have been added in the initial LAVA support patch: 7d6a953455ada9b79d8a3a7ede523cd79647de5c

The packages appear to come from Emdebian repos, which I believe were frozen in 2014. Is it still correct to pull packages from these repos? Has anyone else seen this issue before?

Steps to reproduce, following the quickstart guide:

	http://fuegotest.org/wiki/Fuego_Quickstart_Guide

After running:

	git clone https://bitbucket.org/tbird20d/fuego.git
	git clone https://bitbucket.org/tbird20d/fuego-core.git
	cd fuego; ./install.sh

I'm seeing the following error:

Thomas, Heron2015, and others,

Thank you for the bug report.  This problem has been caused by some package updates
in the Debian security repository, that unexpectedly created some conflicts with the
emdebian armhf cross toolchain installation in Fuego.

I will post a separate e-mail about the solution for this, and some of the ramifications
and work needed to fully resolve this.  But the short story is that I've made a change
to the fuego master branch with the needed fix.

You can either check out the fuego repository again, or just pull the latest fix and try
the install again:
   $ cd fuego ; git pull ; ./install.sh

Regards,
 -- Tim
