Hi,

the git version of Ubuntu 10.04 is to old to support mirror option with parameter which is used by the bitbake fetch2.

Regards,
Stefan

DEBUG: ... git remote add --mirror=fetch origin git://git.yoctoproject.org/opkg-utils
ERROR: Fetcher failure: Fetch command failed with exit code 129, output:
error: option `mirror' takes no value

    -f, --fetch           fetch the remote branches
    -t, --track <branch>  branch(es) to track
    -m, --master <branch>
                          master branch
    --mirror              no separate remotes

Which version of the build system are you using? In master and the upcoming danny / 1.3 release we have a check in the bitbake wrapper script to determine if a newer version of git needs to be built (if the host's version of git is older than 1.7.5); if so we build one (git-replacement-native). The denzil / 1.2 release does not have this, however.

Cheers,
Paul

Sorry, you are right.

Likely I have terminate the bitbake run after pseudo-native but before git-replacement-native finished.
