Why bitbake tdx-reference-multimedia-qt6-image build SDK?

[MariusM]

I use this thead for build image with Qt6

Apalis IMX8 Toradex BSP version - Yocto Linux & QT6

Hi All, We are using apalis imx8qm with b2qt 6.3.1 I want get an information about which version to use for apalis imx8 ixora board according to support and Toradex BSP. A bit history here for how we used b2qt. We were using 6.3.1. And we wanted to use LTS version and planned on switching 6.2 version. Which goes interesting here it is not listed in the Toradex list in the following link. And 6.2 is upgraded to 6.2.6 to 6.2.7 and it dropped support for apalis imx8. With the point of wiev …

It is very strange, but after add Qt6 changes from thread
bitbake tdx-reference-multimedia-qt6-image always build SDK
I don’t need run bitbake -c populate_sdk ...

How to disable ? Build SDK take very very long time

Hi @MariusM ,

Based on this similar question:

• dependencies - yocto: for some reason the populate_sdk task is being called when I build my image - Stack Overflow

I think that the populate_sdk task is running as part of the image build because populate_sdk_qt6.bbclass is inheriting the populate_sdk class:

SUMMARY = "Meta package for building an installable Qt6 toolchain and SDK"

inherit populate_sdk populate_sdk_qt6_base

TOOLCHAIN_HOST_TASK:append = " nativesdk-packagegroup-qt6-toolchain-host"
TOOLCHAIN_TARGET_TASK:append = " packagegroup-qt6-modules"

FEATURE_PACKAGES_qtcreator-debug = "packagegroup-qt6-qtcreator-debug"

Try removing populate_sdk from it (keep populate_sdk_qt6_base inherited) and see if that solves the issue.

Best regards,
Lucas Akira

bitbake tdx-reference-multimedia-qt6-image build image
bitbake -c populate_sdk tdx-reference-multimedia-qt6-image build SDK
