i2c-tools fetch error about openbmc

[fillmorechen]

Issue fixed, Thanks

Thx. Most likely, there was an issue to access the i2c-tool source, which was fixed by itself later.

For 3rd party open source projects, OpenBMC repo (Yocto) only has the reference to its source. The source code will be downloaded during build.

I am experiencing the same issue. It seems lm-server.org is down and so far I haven't found an alternative i2ctools repo that works as well. I found the https://github.com/groeck/i2c-tools.git repo but I still get a build error in the impbd stuff as there are no defines for the I2C slave in the i2c-dev.h.

Any suggestions

Yocto keeps mirrors of packages here : http://downloads.yoctoproject.org/mirror/sources/

The i2c-tools-3.1.1.tar.bz2 is there.

Hello Patrick,

Thanks for that. Will the OpenBMC tree be updated to include these mirrors at least for the i2c-tools case?

In the meantime I got it working by correctly getting the code from another GIT repo on github.

I also mentioned an issue building ipmbd that I expected to be related to this issue. It wasn’t. Actually this was caused by the order in which the bitbake tasks are executed. The ipmbd code requires “facebook/i2c-dev.h” to be present and this was installed much later in the process. Perhaps this was a coincidence on my build. It would be better to know for sure that one task can only be executed when another has been completed.

I cannot answer this. I am not working on this tree.

It appears that i2c-dev.h is provided by the package 'fbutils'. I don't
see that in the dependency list for the ipmbd package. My suggestion would
be to add DEPENDS += "fbutils" to common/recipes-core/ipmbd/ipmbd_0.1.bb
