install any library in yocto

[senthilkumar_s1]

Hello,

          I am working on i.mx6Quad Sabre-SD with YOCTO environment(poky and jethro versions).

          I am facing problems while making few library files present on target(i.mx6)Ex. (sox,swig,bison,awk,python-pyaudio etc)

          Either of these two ways will be helpful

          1.Making apt-get install work on Yocto environment{Installed apt,But proper sources.list is not present}

          2.Any other way to install those library packages

Or else recommendation of any other flavours(like jethro) where I can easily deploy those header files is also appreciated

Thank You in Advance

Hello Senthil Kumar,

You should be able to add apt on all of the Yocto branches, certainly in Jethro. Installing apt does not configure it to reach any servers, as far as I know. It is not setup. So what you saw is correct, you would need to add the list of repositories from which apt would look for new libraries or packages.

There is some information about package management on the following document, although it’s not apt oriented it may serve as some concepts are similar.

The following wiki has information on the sources.list file for apt.

I hope this helps! Please let us know of your findings!
