i.MX8M Yocto build tensor flow lite task error

[ewil]

Trying to build imx-image-full for the i.MX8M Plus Hummingboard by following the steps through this github: https://github.com/SolidRun/meta-solidrun-arm-imx8/tree/kirkstone-imx8m

I'm getting errors regarding tensor flow lite which seems to be common for other versions as well, but I can't seem to find anyone who has posted this issue for my build specifically. One suggestion I see a lot is to edit download_dependencies.sh but I don't have that file. I've followed the Yocto Project User's guide for downloading dependencies. I've also used the -g flag that saves task dependencies to task-depends.dot but I can't figure out how to open the file, even with xdot which is supposed to be able to open that file type.

I'm debating posting this question to the solidrun forum as well just to get max amount of views for possible help. Let me know if you have any other sources I should check out, thanks ahead for any help/advice, and let me know if I should provide more info.

Here is my output after using bitbake imx-image-full :

Update: 

I attempted to bitbake core-image-minimal to see if I would encounter any similar errors but was able to built it no problem. Is there a possibility i would be able to build imx-image-full without the package that has been giving me errors? Might not be not sure if how many (if any) things are dependent on this specific part. Going to look more into this but if anyone has experience with this or knows any good resources please let me know. Thanks!
