Fail message with opkg in yocto project

2.2k views Asked by At

I am not sure that this is the best place to ask about yocto, there is a webpage such a forum only of yocto? This is my first question. The second question is related to the title, I have problems with the opkg when I am trying install packets. I have tried to update and upgrade but when I update don't find packets. I adjunt a example with the message that I obtain when I execute the opkg command:

  • root@sama5d27-wlsom1-ek-sd~# opkg install curl Collected errors:
  • opkg_prepare_url_for_install: Couldn't find anything to satisfy 'curl'.

This message appears whith any package that I want install, I don't know what happenned, I need help.

Thanks in advance.

For your first question:

No, this is not the only place to ask about Yocto.

For more professional community visit Yocto mailing list in this link.

For your second question:

In order to use package manager in Yocto (opkg, apt, dnf), you need to configure your package feeds to a source list server that the board will fetch the sources from.

In order to do that, Yocto offers a method that makes you able to start a server inside the Yocto generated packages, and based on that you configure the board's run-time package manager to fetch from that server.

For more detailed information, please check this link, and follow instructions and detailed documentation.
