This used to be required in older Isar versions (prio to commit 8b8a339cfaa4) for one configuration. It may still be required by downstream layers, though it can be avoided. To overcome this potential need to enter the host's root password without breaking those cases, keep the feature but make it explicit (--with-loop-dev option).

Setup tool for bitbake based projects ===================================== +------------+------------------+ | Branch | Build Status | +============+==================+ | ``master`` | |travis-master|_ | +------------+------------------+ | ``next`` | |travis-next|_ | +------------+------------------+ .. |travis-master| image:: https://travis-ci.org/siemens/kas.svg?branch=master .. _travis-master: https://travis-ci.org/siemens/kas/branches .. |travis-next| image:: https://travis-ci.org/siemens/kas.svg?branch=next .. _travis-next: https://travis-ci.org/siemens/kas/branches This tool provides an easy mechanism to setup bitbake based projects. The OpenEmbedded tooling support starts at step 2 with bitbake. The downloading of sources and then configuration has to be done by hand. Usually, this is explained in a README. Instead kas is using a project configuration file and does the download and configuration phase. Key features provided by the build tool: - clone and checkout bitbake layers - create default bitbake settings (machine, arch, ...) - launch minimal build environment, reducing risk of host contamination - initiate bitbake build process See the `kas documentation <https://kas.readthedocs.io>`_ for further details.
