Hello,

Thank you for reaching out with your question. Building Yocto images on Ubuntu 24 can indeed present some challenges, as the Yocto Project typically supports specific versions of Linux distributions, often focusing on LTS (Long Term Support) versions like Ubuntu 20.04.

If you’re encountering issues, they might be due to compatibility problems with the newer Ubuntu version. Here are a few steps you can consider:

1. Check Dependencies: Make sure all the necessary dependencies for Yocto are installed. You might need to manually install or update certain packages that are not readily available or compatible with Ubuntu 24.

2. Use a Supported Version: If possible, try using a supported version of Ubuntu, such as 20.04 LTS, for building Yocto images. This can help avoid potential compatibility issues.

3. Virtual Environment: If changing your host OS isn’t feasible, consider using a virtual machine or Docker container with a supported Ubuntu version to build your Yocto image.

4. Community Feedback: Look into community forums or mailing lists for any patches or workarounds that others might have shared for building Yocto on Ubuntu 24.

By following these suggestions, you should be able to address the issues you’re facing and successfully build your Yocto image. If you continue to experience difficulties, reverting to a more stable and supported environment for Yocto builds might be beneficial.
