Hi, I switched to master. The problem is not related to this bug. This is when you are importing from a layer in a directory. The absolute path to the layer directory is not saved and None instead is stored. you have to edit the layer imported and replace the None layer directory information with the directory.

The new updates to the Toaster Manual 2.4 has information about this in the just-completed "Customize Toaster" section. >> >> - David >> >> -----Original Message----- >> >> From:toaster-bounces@yoctoproject.org >> [mailto:toaster-bounces@yoctoproject.org] On Behalf Of Stéphane Ancelot >> >> Sent: Monday, October 16, 2017 12:52 AM >> >> To:toaster@yoctoproject.org >> >> Subject: [Toaster] import a layer directory problem >> >> hi, >> >> I have got some problems trying to import a layer : >> >> I first copied the meta-skeleton layer in a directory named test (inside the OS running toaster) >> >> then in toaster, I setted the pathname of my layer directory. >> >> I can sea my layer name in available layers , but inside there is no summary/description/recipes available ....like it was not added.... >> >> Regards, >> >> Stéphane ANCELOT >> >> -- >> >> _______________________________________________ >> >> toaster mailing list >> >> toaster@yoctoproject.org >> >> https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/toaster >> >> >> >> > > >
