You can either: a) switch to individual clones of bitbake, openembedded-core, meta-yocto and yocto-docs b) use the new bitbake-setup You can find information about either approach in our documentation: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/ Note that "poky" the distro setting is still available in meta-yocto as before and we continue to use and maintain that. Long live Poky! Some further information on the background of this change can be found in: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2179 Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

pseudo: Add nobody user and group

2016-08-10T09:46:31+00:00

Nodejs expects the user and group nobody to exist on global install commands. The target build works as base-passwd contained it, however the fallback passwd did not. This broke the SDK if nodejs was included. (From OE-Core rev: 40b89061c1efe8c150c1ac0886616d1b6facc2a0) Signed-off-by: Michael Davis Signed-off-by: Ross Burton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

pseudo: provide fallback passwd and group files

2014-11-25T13:03:30+00:00

Normally pseudo is built with --without-passwd-fallback, which requires that somebody provide target passwd and group files. Those come from base-passwd in OE, but base-passwd cannot be built without first invoking operations under pseudo that require getpw*/getgr*. Provide the absolute minimum stub files, matching in content what will eventually be on the target, that can be used in the cases where the target files are not yet available. The requirements for minimum stub are the usernames and groups identified in meta/files/fs-perms.txt. (From OE-Core rev: 91443426246fbe13083c19801b7c74365e041271) Signed-off-by: Peter A.
