Compile L3.0.35_4.1.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit OS

[#1]

This is the procedure and patch to set up Ubuntu 12.04 64bit Linux Host PC and building i.MX6x L3.0.35_4.1.0.  It has been tested to build GNOME profile and with FSL Standard MM Codec for i.MX6Q SDB board.

A) Basic Requirement:

• Set up the Linux Host PC using ubuntu-12.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso
• Make sure the previous LTIB installation and the /opt/freescale have been removed

B) Installed the needed packages to the Linux Host PC

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install gettext libgtk2.0-dev rpm bison m4 libfreetype6-dev

$ sudo apt-get install libdbus-glib-1-dev liborbit2-dev intltool

$ sudo apt-get install ccache ncurses-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev gcc g++ libtool

$ sudo apt-get install uuid-dev liblzo2-dev

$ sudo apt-get install tcl dpkg

$ sudo apt-get install asciidoc texlive-latex-base dblatex xutils-dev

$ sudo apt-get install texlive texinfo

$ sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libc6-dev-i386 lib32z1

$ sudo apt-get install uboot-mkimage

$ sudo apt-get install scrollkeeper

$ sudo apt-get install gparted

$ sudo apt-get install nfs-common nfs-kernel-server

$ sudo apt-get install git-core git-doc git-email git-gui gitk

$ sudo apt-get install meld atftpd

C) Unpack and install the LTIB source package and assume done on the home directory:

$ cd ~

$ tar -zxvf L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source.tar.gz

$ ./L3.0.35_4.1.0_130816_source/install

After that, you will find ~/ltib directory created

D) Apply the patch to make L3.0.35_4.1.0 could be installed and compiled on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit OS

$ cd ~/ltib

$ git apply 0001_make_L3.0.35_4.1.0_compile_on_Ubuntu_12.04_64bit_OS.patch

The patch modifies the following files:

• dist/lfs-5.1/base_libs/base_libs.spec
• dist/lfs-5.1/ncurses/ncurses.spec

E) Then, it is ready to proceed the rest of the LTIB env setup process:

$ cd ~/ltib

$ ./ltib -m config

$ ./ltib
