[marcelziswiler]

Attempting a Yocto Project build leads to the following build error:

OK, fixed it. Use this how-to for modifying nxp-wlan-sdk_git.bb: https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.6.1/kernel-dev/kernel-dev.html#incorporating-out-of-tree-modules

[Jems-advantech]

This patch works for me.

[botondkardos]

This is the real error:

make[1]: *** /lib/modules/5.9.11-100.fc32.x86_64/build: No such file or directory. Stop.

The Makefile tries to use the host machine's Linux sources while it ought to build against the target Linux. I'm in the middle of finding out what needs to be added to the recipe to use the target kernel.

[yalefee]

I have the same problem.not solved. Any NXP employee answer this?

[marcelziswiler]

I never got any further comments from NXP. However, as stated earlier:

> The correct way to achieve this would be to properly add bc-native to the DEPENDS of any and all recipes requiring any such.

OK?

[marcelziswiler]

Anybody from NXP dear to comment?

Hi marcelziswiler,

You need install all needed packages as yocto build user guide.

/bin/sh: bc: command not found

 It shows that you did not install bc package.

Best Regards

Zhiming

No, bc is not and never was a build host requirement. Please refer to section 21.2. Required Packages for the Build Host of the Yocto Project Reference Manual aka Mega-Manual:

https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html#required-packages-for-the-bui...

The correct way to achieve this would be to properly add bc-native to the DEPENDS of any and all recipes requiring any such. Thanks!
