Re: Yocto 1.6 + QT5.3.2 on i.MX6

[Dale Tyler]

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I did not communicate well. We have our own image recipe that includes 
core-image-base.bb. It is similar to core-image-minimal in that it does 
not include X11 or Wayland nor many other packages that are in the 
larger images.

We are using dizzy primarily because the fido changes for our platform 
were only released a few days ago and we want to complete our initial 
work before moving to fido or QT5.4.2.

However, if it can be determined that this problem can only be fixed by 
going to fido and/or QT5.4.2, then we will do so. SInce there supposedly 
was a fix for this in daisy, perhaps it simply got dropped for dizzy 
somehow.

Has anyone built an image similar to what we are using and fixed this issue?

Thanks,
Dale Tyler

If you are including or inheriting core-image-base, so it should be
OK. The problem when basing your work on core-image-minimal is that it
does not include MACHINE_RECOMMENDS, which include the firmwares.

I know there are someone in the mailing list with success on using
QT5.x, I cannot remember who or which branch.
However I have never saw this:
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-qtquickcontrols = " accessibility"
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-qtbase = " accessibility"


You don't exactly need to have your BSP ported to fido in order to
test the build of any imx6Q machine with fido and QT. Take, for
example, imx6qsabresd and see if you can build the image.

We support several customers, at O.S. Systems, using Qt. We have been
using it in Dizzy and Fido for different customers.

We use:

PACKAGECONFIG_DISTRO_pn-qtbase = "accessibility"

Because of [1].

1. https://github.com/meta-qt5/meta-qt5/blob/master/recipes-qt/qt5/qtbase_git.bb#L50

And to include the QtQuickControls you should add
qtquickcontrols-qmlplugins as RDEPENDS on your application.

It should work as expected.

Hi Octavio,

Thank you for the reply.

I added PACKAGECONFIG_DISTRO_pn-qtbase = "accessibility" to local.conf, removed the two PACKAGECONFIG_append lines from that 
file as well.

I then added RDEPENDS_${PN} = "qtquickcontrols-qmlplugins" to my bit-linux-image.bb file that has: include recipes-
core/images/core-image-base.bb

I removed qtquick1, qtquickcontrols and qtquickcontrols-qmlplusins from my IMAGE_INSTALL variable set in bit-linux-image.bb.

The build error has gone away, but the qtquickcontrols files are not in the rootfs image, either.

Do you have any other suggestions that I might try?

This is what I am using to build my image. 

Thanks,
Dale

You seem to be using the Freescale release; I don't follow it closely
and they do some nasty hacks. I use meta-qt5 on top of FSL Community
BSP or O.S. Systems Embedded Linux so I cannot provide much feedback
regarding Freescale release.

Hello,

I'm having the same problem as Dale Tyle.

I'm trying to compile the bit-linux-image.bb to test if this image could
add qtquickcontrols and I'm having this error message:
I change the include recipes-core/images/core-image-base.bb to inherit
core-image-base

I suggest you to create your own image. And, instead of base it off
core-image-minimal, use core-image-base.

Yocto 1.6 + QT5.3.2 on i.MX6

[Dale Tyler]

Hi,

We are having problems building a customized core-image-minimal image 
with QT5.3.2.

The error we see when creating the target rootfs is
ERROR: qtquickcontrols not found in the base feeds (cgtqmx6 
cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-mx6qdl cortexa9hf-vfp-neon cortexa9hf-vfp 
armv7ahf-vfp-neon armv7ahf-vfp armv6hf-vfp armv5ehf-vfp armv5hf-vfp 
noarch any all).

We cloned the GIT repo using:
git clone -b dizzy https://github.com/meta-qt5/meta-qt5.git

We have included the following in local.conf:
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-qtquickcontrols = " accessibility"
PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-qtbase = " accessibility"

On May 28, 2014, there was a post to this list that talked about a fix 
being pushed by Octavio to master and daisy, which I would assume would 
have end up in the dizzy branch.

If we leave out qtquick1 and qtquickcontrols from IMAGE_INSTALL in our 
image recipe, things build fine, but we need qtquickcontrols for our 
application.

Any suggestions on how to proceed would be welcome.

Thanks,
Dale
