Hello,
To integrate the meta-qt6 layer on your Verdin iMX8MP module, you’ll need to work within the Yocto Project environment. The meta-qt6 layer is part of the Yocto Project’s meta-qt5 layer, which supports building Qt applications.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you add the meta-qt6 layer to your Yocto build environment:
Set Up Yocto Environment: Ensure your Yocto build environment is set up for the Verdin iMX8MP. This typically involves configuring the Toradex BSP (Board Support Package) for your specific hardware.
Clone the Meta-Qt6 Layer: Clone the meta-qt6 layer from a repository that supports it. This might be part of the meta-qt5 repository or a separate repository, depending on the version and support.
Add the Layer to Your Build: After cloning, add the meta-qt6 layer to your bblayers.conf
file in your Yocto build directory, located in the conf
directory.
BBLAYERS += "<path-to-meta-qt6-layer>"
Configure Your Build: Modify your local.conf
file to include any specific configurations needed for Qt6. This might include setting the DISTRO_FEATURES
to include ‘qt6’ and any other specific configurations for your application.
Build the Image: Use the bitbake command to build your image with Qt6 support. For example:
bitbake <your-image-name>
Deploy and Test: Once the build is complete, deploy the image to your Verdin iMX8MP module and test your Qt6 applications.
These steps should assist you in integrating the meta-qt6 layer into your Yocto build for the Verdin iMX8MP. If you encounter specific issues, ensure all dependencies for Qt6 are met and that your Yocto environment is correctly configured for the Verdin iMX8MP hardware.

Hi @sur2!
The meta-qt6
layer won’t be added to our repo since it is a third-party meta-layer. If you followed this tutorial, you’ll get the meta-qt5
layer, but only because we use it in our demo on multimedia images.
If you want to use Qt6 in your project, clone its repository and add the layer in your bblayers.conf
.
Best regards.

Hi @lucas_az.tx ,
i am experiencing any issue while building the multimedia-qt6-image krikstone.
i have followed the below Blog
But my do_configure fails in qtapplicationmanager recipe.
and i tried with ubuntu 20.04 and ubuntu 22.04 as well.
Still i am experiencing the same issue,and also i have tried with scarthgap as well but the buiild fails in qtapplicationmanager recipe(do_configure) fails.
i have already raised a query on it, but i didn’t get the reply.
