STM32MP15 ECO 5.0.0 Unable to create distribution repo

[debugging]

I had the distribution package installed, deleted it and wanted to recreate it in another folder. However init repo gives the below message and repo sync only download the layers folder.

repo init -u https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/oe-manifest.git -b refs/tags/openstlinux-6.1-yocto-mickledore-mp1-v23.06.21

Hi @debugging 

The message you see when running the command «repo init...» shows the script tries to update your «repo» binary file but can't do it as it doesn't have root access rights. You can safely ignore it.

The «repo sync» only downloads layers. That's correct too.

Then you need to follow the next steps from the wiki page : https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/STM32MP1_Distribution_Package#Initializing_the_OpenEmbedded_build_environment

started from scratch,

1. deleted the distro folder

2. recreate the folder

3. Initaize the SDK path (source to the SDK)

4. init

5. repo sync.

that went fine.

6 DISTRO=openstlinux-weston MACHINE=stm32mp15 source layers/meta-st/scripts/envsetup.sh

[HOST DISTRIB check]

[source layers/openembedded-core/oe-init-build-env][from nothing]
Error: The OE SDK/ADT was detected as already being present in this shell environment. Please use a clean shell when sourcing this environment script.

One step further  the SDK should not be initialized for DISTRO ...close terminal started a new one, ten 

6. DITRO ....

7. bitbake gives now:

[debugging · Accepted solution]

Fixed. The key issues is not to initialize the SDK, and DISTRO failure was a typo.

DISTRO=openstlinux-weston MACHINE=stm32mp1 source layers/meta-st/scripts/envsetup.sh
