Hi!

I am trying to build an image for Intel Edison, that includes some software from the meta-oe repo on daisy branch(Intel docs suggest to use daisy).

Daisy is pretty dated at this point. Hopefully one of the Edison people
can let us know if you can use something recent.

When I try to add tmux to my image, it fails during do_configure_prepend() with the following message:

sed: can't read Makefile.am: No such file or directory

Is there anything I can try?

Can you post a little more of the log? You've covered the background
pretty good, but a little more context might help.

Philip

Thank you!

This is what i get:

It seems that do_configure_prepend() fails trying to "sed" a line into makefile.am here is the command being run:

sed -i -e 's:-I/usr/local/include::' Makefile.am || bb_fatal "sed failed"

In case anybody has the same issue, I wrote a really simple recipe for the latest tmux v2.1

call it tmux_2.1.bb and put in one of your layers
