From 1a7069e97b9ec208dc3cb70f9465b65de7e0a6f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Konrad Scherer Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 16:05:58 -0500 Subject: bitbake: ui: Improve error message if bitbake cannot import python curses module On some SuSE systems, the curses python module is not installed by default. Instead of a python failure, we want a nicer error message. (On SuSE systems the package is typically python-curses.)
