yocto build with weston graphics. XDG_RUNTIME_DIR path issue

Anton_K — Tue, 29 Aug 2023 10:31:18 GMT

Hello, community!
I have an issue, that during Yocto Distro build I have missed XDG_RUNTIME_DIR path. Also I've found who can set this path:

~/var-fslc-yocto/sources$ grep -nri XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user poky/meta/lib/oeqa/runtime/cases/weston.py:34: return 'export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/`id -u weston`; export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-1; %s' % cmd poky/meta/recipes-graphics/wayland/weston-init/weston-start:60: export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/`id -u ${WESTON_USER}` poky/meta/recipes-graphics/wayland/weston-init/weston-start:71:su -c "XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/`id -u ${WESTON_USER}` weston $weston_args --log=/tmp/weston.log" $WESTON_USER meta-variscite-sdk/dynamic-layers/fsl-sdk-release/recipes-qt/qt6/qtbase/qt6-linuxfb.sh:3: export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u) meta-variscite-sdk/dynamic-layers/qt5-layer/recipes-qt/qt5/qtbase_%.bbappend:41: echo " export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/\$(id -u)" >> ${D}${sysconfdir}/profile.d/qt5.sh meta-variscite-sdk/recipes-graphics/wayland/weston-service/weston-app.sh:7: export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/`id -u`

Well, I have no QT, so I need to run somehow weston-app.sh or weston-start.
On my distro I have:

DISTRO_FEATURES:append = " x11 \ wayland \ weston-xwayland \

Can someone tell me what should I configure to be able to run the weston-app.service? Now I have no weston-app.service on my build.

Hello, thanks for response.
1. Based on variscite-bsp. I don't know where to see the version, around this commit: 4c281f95ebfd49094f1944b6753d725dd775f8af Probably minus several commits before
2. I'm calling gst-launch1.0 and for graphics it requires XDG_RUNTIME_DIR path. This might be environment variable
3. simple error: error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment. I can set this variable manually, but I guess it should be installed
4. Yocto Kirkstone v15.5.60

Thanks in advance, Anton

There is really no solution on the links. I must use XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/'id -u' as environment setup. This is the end.
