Note: Task Failed: Fetch Failed: Quilt, do_fetch fails all the time Options

[noha]

I started yesterday to install openembedded according to the Wiki::GettingStarted.

When I try to build anything with bitbake it doesn't succeed. If I try to build nano I get the following:
(using bitbake -D -D -D nano)

NOTE: fetch http://www.treke.net/oe/source/quilt_savan...ER_0_39_.tar.gz

ERROR: TaskFailed event exception, aborting

It don'tt know where the problem could be. Invoking the command

CVS_RSH="ssh" /usr/bin/env cvs -d:ext:anoncvs@savannah.nongnu.org:/cvsroot/quilt co -r VER_0_39 quilt

succeeds. Afterward I can retry building bitbake -D -D -D nano. Then I get the following.

NOTE: fetch http://www.treke.net/oe/source/quilt_savan...ER_0_39_.tar.gz
DEBUG: Fetch: checking for module directory

NOTE: package quilt-native-0.39-r0: task do_fetch: failed
ERROR: TaskFailed event exception, aborting
NOTE: package quilt-native-0.39: failed

It doesn't depend on the package I try to build. I assume that it isn't the cvs task which fails. As I am knew to openembedded I have no idea what is going wrong. Is there chance to debug even more?


I am using an up to date gentoo ~x86 system.

thanks,

I seem to be having exactly the same problem.
Anybody have any suggestions?

I also have a fresh copy of Gentoo...

Thanks!

Quilt is a patch manager iirc, it's required by OE (so will be downloaded & built much like the toolchain is).

Not sure why you can't get it atm, but perhaps the server is busy?

FWIW, I like patcher better and always suggest

echo 'INHERIT += patcher' >>conf/local.conf

This also "fixes" the quilt problem

I'd appreciate someone looking in to this problem instead of using nondefault hacks (enabling patcher)

/me also hints at http://bugs.openembedded.org

I tried this inside the firewall where I work, and I now get a similar problem retrieving patcher...
It may be a firewall issue, or more likely, I have something setup wrong....
I will try from home soon...

Is there any specific setup I need for BitBake? It 'says' it completes the download, but complains about null.
Here is the original Quilt failure (outside the firewall):
