I am building a sample package using bitbake. Before that, I have created a core image for architecture ppc by specifying MACHINE ?= "qemuppc" in conf/local.conf. The result was

~/yocto/poky-daisy-11.0.0/build_qemuppc/tmp/deploy/images/qemuppc/core-image-minimal-qemuppc.ext3

Now, for a sample package, I am using following 

git clone https://github.com/DynamicDevices/meta-example

I added this package as a separate layer. The result package was:

tmp/deploy/rpm/ppc7400/bbexample-1.0-r0.ppc7400.rpm

The expected architecture is ppc, but package created for ppc7400. How can I specify architecture while building a package?

Thanks for your time!

EDIT

The target machine where I want to install this package is:

#cat /etc/*release*
LSB_VERSION="core-4.1-noarch:core-4.1-powerpc"
DISTRIB_ID=fsl-networking
DISTRIB_RELEASE=1.6
DISTRIB_CODENAME=daisy
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Poky (Yocto Project Reference Distro) 1.6"

#uname -r
3.12.19-rt30-QorIQ-SDK-V1.6+gc29fe1a

#uname -m
ppc

That's correct - the package contains the architecture of the tune, not the machine name.

  • When I install this package on intended machine, I get `warning: package bbexample-1.0-r0.ppc7400 is intended for a ppc7400-unknown-linux platform`. However, I didnt find files in machine after installation, and `rpm -qa` doesnt show this new package name. – Nitinkumar Ambekar Apr 20 '16 at 09:14
  • I added some information about target machine in question, Please have a look. – Nitinkumar Ambekar Apr 20 '16 at 09:30
  • Don't try to build a package for qemuppc and then put it on an image running a different MACHINE. Your target is using a qoriq machine from meta-fsl-ppc, so pick the appropriate machine from there. – Ross Burton Apr 21 '16 at 12:03
