There is a new SDK image available at :
https://img.merproject.org/images/sdk/
This SDK image is now getting quite big as it has all the cross- tools in it for
ARM and MIPS; if this is a problem then let us know and we'll look at creating a
smaller minimal image which can be configured to a specific architecture.
The wiki page
http://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Platform_SDK
has been updated too.
Main release notes:
* The SDK image is now pinned to specific static repositories. Updates are
carried out using "sdk-upgrade" which allows the repos to be updated to latest,
next or set to point to any Mer Core/SDK release pairing.
* The steps to create the SDK have been documented and use some release
generation scripts as described at: http://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Tools
* There is a new version of scratchbox2 and new sb2 rules
* Bradley Smith's tidy-up on umount code has been included
* git now installs correctly
* Updates to some packages including mic and spectacle
For existing SDK users you can do:
sudo zypper ref
sudo zypper in sdk-chroot
sudo sdk-upgrade
You will then be told what steps to take to upgrade (usually just zypper ref/up
but you may need to remove the unstable Tools:Testing repo - and you really
should as that's now going to be used by the Tools team for sharing experimental
packages)
