Message-ID: <PR3PR07MB824382E96561F0F922CFC445FC552@PR3PR07MB8243.eurprd07.prod.outlook.com> (raw)

Hi Michael,

As I'm not all that familiar (yet) with Yocto and BitBake, I need to carefully
research the variable SDKPATH, especially since the documentation is apparently incorrect.
And it's not my highest priority. So if you have the time, any help is welcome.

Rgds,

Johan

Do you need help doing this? I'll be happy to help if you don't have time right now.
