libxml2 error

[wuteng wu]

Hi,

I built the Yocto 1.5 project for my SAMA5D34-EK board, i add the libxml2
by IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " libxml2", i got the image and programmed it
into NAND Flash of the board, but when i type *python -c "import libxml2" *from
the hyper Terminal , it gave out the message: *"*

*Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError: No
module named libxml2"*
I can find libxml2.so.2.9 under the usr/lib dir, i'm wondering where does
the error comes from, could anyone help me to solve the problem ? Thx.

Our libxml2 is built without Python, you'll need to remove the
--disable-python options from the recipe.

I'm newbie to Yocto, could u tell me more details?
EXTRA_OECONF = "--without-python --without-debug --without-legacy
--without-catalog --without-docbook --with-c14n --without-lzma
--with-fexceptions"
EXTRA_OECONF_class-native = "--with-python=${STAGING_BINDIR}/python
--without-legacy --with-catalog --without-docbook --with-c14n
--without-lzma"
EXTRA_OECONF_class-nativesdk = "--with-python=${STAGING_BINDIR}/python
--without-legacy --with-catalog --without-docbook --with-c14n
--without-lzma"
EXTRA_OECONF_linuxstdbase = "--without-python --with-debug --with-legacy
--with-catalog --with-docbook --with-c14n --without-lzma"
Is the --without-python option that i need to modify?

Yes, apologies I got the option name wrong when writing the mail.

After changed all those "without-python" to "with-python", i try to build
| In file included from

error: unknown type name 'xmlCatalogPtr'

error: unknown type name 'xmlCatalogPtr'
| PyObject * libxml_xmlCatalogPtrWrap(xmlCatalogPtr obj);

I suggest you approach the libxml2 maintainers about this compile
error. There's a mailing list and IRC channel listed on their web
site.
