qt4-embedded will not install on 3.8 kernel

I just tried to install qt4-embedded on the BBB, and I received the following error:

Collected errors:

  • satisfy_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for qt4-embedded:
  • kernel-image-3.2.30 *
  • opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package qt4-embedded.

Is there a simple configuration somewhere that can be changed to allow it to work on 3.8 kernels? Or do I need to build Qt myself?

Yeah, make 3D SGX work with 3.8 :slight_smile: You should be able to install it with --force-depends, it will work, just without opengl-es.

Yep, that worked. Thanks!

By the way… are there any plans to add Qt5 support in the near future?

Opkg install qt4-embedded --force-depends

-brent

Standard version that came with the BBB.

can u post the procedure how do u run the QT app in Beagle Bone Black.?

so how do we get opengl-es api on BBB?
when we use the -force-depends command what exactly is going on? Are we forcing the install despite the needed dependencies??

Thank you for the help!!

Well even with “force-depends” you end with iconv errors about fonts

  • opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package qt4-embedded.

Is there a simple configuration somewhere that can be changed to allow it to work on 3.8 kernels?

I am using Angstrom YOCTO project 3.8 Kernal.
Kindly help me out a bit on this.
Stucked for about a week and couldn’t get qt4 Embedded running on bbb.

opkg install qt4-embedded --force-depends isnt working at all…Same problem persists.
