I found that the python2.7 is the problem when I changed to python3 I got the following error :

you can see here on how to use repo with python3:

You can see here for an example on downloading WP76 yocto source from Github: (it also uses repo with python3)

The solution is to use python3 with repo. Which means I will have to change a lot of scripts in legeto framework which I dont want to do as it demands maintenance.

What is the official statement on this issue ? I see with leaf it should just work. Is this a known issue and is someone working on it ?

4

Repo is for downloading code, not in legato framework

Btw, a lot of user can download

You can also try in Ubuntu16 or Ubuntu18 in VMwware

By Legato framework I mean the legato development environment which is basically leaf. Leaf internally uses repo. It creates a dir .repo in legaro-src dir when you enter leaf getsrc legato and the solution above is to change this .repo to point to python3. This is a hack which I want to avoid . As there is no where in the documentation it is mentioned that python3 is needed. Infact leaf has dependencies on python2 not python3.

Don’t know why you cannot use python2 then…

Anyways I tried the above solution as well. But I am getting other errors:

Did you install pager?
pip install pager

It is installed. The problem is why it is reporting syntax error ?

10

no idea, i don’t have much experience in python…
did you see problem on Ubuntu 16 or Ubuntu 18?
