builds our specifically configured linux image.
With `runqemu qemux86-64 core-image-bmw` the linux image runs within a virtual machine.
We assume that this is running on and compiled for an x86-64 architecture. For other architectures, some settings must be adjusted.
Unpack ros_server.tar.gz somewhere, adjust pathes in fuerte-ros-base.rosinstall to the location where it has been unpacked.
After starting the virtual machine, copy the installation script from the guest system to the home directory with scp and execute it.
scp lukas@192.168.7.1:/<location of repository>/install.sh .
sh ./install.sh

meta/recipes-devtools/python/python-pyyaml_3.10.bb recipe for pyyaml python library
meta/recipes-devtools/python/python-rospkg_1.0.15.bb recipe for rospkg tool
RESOLVED ISSUES:
- recipes for python-pyyaml and python-rospkg create invalid shell scripts (header line refers to python-native instead of python.)
RESOLVED by patching distutils class--will be committed to yocto.
OPEN ISSUES:
- Yocto: python-setuptools requires python-modules at run-time.
- recipe for log4cxx requires another patch.
- Yocto: python-setuptools requires some python-modules at run-time.
TEMPORARILY RESOLVED by adding all python-modules in the image
SHOULD BE RESOLVED by creating an appropriate patch for python-setuptools and contributing to openembedded-core
- rospkg modules are not found when runnning python.
UNCLEAR. Maybe we need rospkg-dev?
- Compilation with make fails in the virtual machine because of insufficient memory during compilation.
