Hi Michael,
This looks different to the report you cite from 2008-11. In your case
no build attempt is even being tried.
You'd be much better basing your derivative BSP on the one from Savannah
CVS as this gets more frequent updates.
It's likely this is a bug and has been fixed in later versions.
If you want to track this down, the area to debug/look at is in the ltib
script in this area:
# build if force, no rpms or if the spec file was updated
if( $cf->{force} || $cf->{download_only}
|| (exists $$key->{build} && $$key->{build})
|| $cf->{dltest} || ! @rpms || -M $spec < -M $rpms[0]){
You can add a "warn/print" to see if this section is entered, if not
then there is no build condition being detected.
My advice is if at all possible to upgrade as this section has changed a
great deal.
Regards, Stuart

Hello,
I'm having the same problem as one I found in the archives
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/ltib/2008-11/msg00083.html): even if
I choose 'Configure the kernel' in LTIB, it exits and continues building
w/o entering the kernel config screen.
I have created a new platform, imx31ev, with imx31ads as a template. I
am using the LTIB from the ADS BSP (imx31_ads_20080722-rel6-ltib). This
had been working, but I can't put my finger on what change I had made to
cause this, so now I'm trying to track that down.
I am building the kernel from a "local Linux directory build" with an
external build dir. Apparently the original poster's problem involved a
missing file, and this doesn't seem to be the case with me (I don't see
a warning to this effect like he did). Below is the output immediately
after leaving LTIB config.
I see that 'make menuconfig' is in "kernel-common.tmpl", but it looks to
me like the %build section here is not called (I put an 'echo' at the
top of it). 'Executing(%build)' runs a script in tmp/ like
'rpm-tmp.49764', but I don't understand where this script comes from or
how to keep it from being deleted so I can inspect it. And I'm not sure
this is looking in the right direction anyway.
Suggestions?
thanks,
Michael
