Yocto i.MX6: How to add networkmanager

[Niting]

Dear Community,

I was able to enable networkmanager in the Yocto build for the imx6 board. I have added the below line in local.conf file:

IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " networkmanager"

IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " modemmanager"

However, I am getting the following errror:

NOTE: Executing Tasks

Thank you in advance.

HI @Niting 

You can remove the connman package: Add DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = "connman" to the local.conf file to remove the installation of the package.
