I had tried this with several different targets and I got the same error. Is it common that git is passed a checksum as the target? How does git decide what to download in that case? Could some kind of an error confuse yocto/openembedded so that it tried to use a checksum instead of a path?
This wasn't anywhere near the first step in the build and it was the first time that I had tried to build arago, so there had been a lot of network communication up to the point that the build failed.
I have since tried building a non-sdk target so that I could get past this error and I've encountered another error:
ERROR: Fetcher failure for URL: 'http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~whot/evtest/snapshot/evtest-1.25.tar.bz2;name=archive'. Checksum mismatch!
File: '/home/gwilson/ti-sdk-am335x-evm-07.00.00.00/arago/downloads/evtest-1.25.tar.bz2' has md5 checksum 0ef3fe5e20fa2dee8994827d48482902 when 770d6af03affe976bdbe3ad1a922c973 was expected
I am behind a proxy, but the machine that I'm building on has an IP address that is supposed to completely bypass the proxy and I don't have a proxy configured on it. I have run Robert C. Nelson's BBB Debian build system which does a pretty good job of stressing network connections and I haven't had any problems with that.
