Can not install linux soure

Legato Application Framework
9

Finally got this to work! In case anyone’s interested here was my solution:

Set python symbolic link to point to python 3:
sudo rm /usr/bin/python
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

Back-up copy of /usr/bin/repo:
sudo cp /usr/bin/repo /usr/bin/repo.bak

Download copy of repo from https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo to /usr/bin/repo replacing original /usr/bin/repo

Ran leaf getsrc swi-linux and got this error:

Run

  git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'dcchurchill@ubuntu.(none)')

Ran (with my actual e-mail and name):
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

Ran leaf getsrc swi-linux one more time and it worked!
