Gconf_dbus Compile Error With Oe.stable Options

[paulcsf]

I am trying to develop an embedded X86-compatible OS, and am having problems getting very far. I have been able to find the answers to my problems so far, but haven't found any information relating to this one.

My development environment is Ubuntu 8.04.

My BitBake / OE snapshot is:

OE Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION = "1.8.10"
OE_REVISION = "1158bcc7fbd021ba939dc1e2ef7be69cf90f2806"
TARGET_ARCH = "i586"
TARGET_OS = "linux"
MACHINE = "i586-generic"
DISTRO = "generic"
DISTRO_VERSION = ".dev-snapshot-20080902"
TARGET_FPU = ""

I am using the .stable branch of the OE database, with monotone 0.37 and OE-this-is-for-mtn-0.37.mtn.bz2.

I successfully built "helloworld", so I think I have things setup mostly correct.

Now I get an error trying to compile gconf_dbus. I added SRCREV_pn-gconf-dbus ?= ${AUTOREV} to my local.conf because the svn get was failing to find and download version 1 (I think, failing either way). Now with the ${AUTOREV} option, it made it past the svn get, processed many more tasks, and now fails compiling. The svn http site for gconf_dbus seems to show 699 as the latest, but using the ${AUTOREV} option seems to download 693 as shown in the debug output below.

I tried the OE.dev branch, but it fails with many of the following errors:

If anybody has some suggestions, I would love to hear them. Thanks.

The 'generic' distro is broken and unsupported, use 'angstrom-2007.1' in .stable or 'angstrom-2008.1' in .dev

[paulcsf]

Thank you. The angstrom-2007.1 distro successfully ran all of it's tasks.
