Yocto, Bitbake: List of files, which are to download in the build-process

Question

I started to set up Yocto and followed the official documentation. Problem is the companies' firewall, which doesn't allow me to access all files bitbake wants to download. Now I try to find out where bitbake wants to fetch its files from. The bitbake user manual has a "File Support Download-Section", which didn't help me. Furthermore the bitbakecommand itself gives me warnings like

WARNING: Failed to fetch URL http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/quilt/quilt-0.64.tar.gz, attempting MIRRORS if available

However it's impossible to gather a complete list of WARNINGS, since after a specific time the build-process stops.

Here my steps to the current state (as said: according to the yocto manual):

1. Installing of all required packages

   $ sudo apt-get update
   $ sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-
   multilib \ build-essential chrpath socat libsdl1.2-dev xterm
   $ sudo apt-get upgrade
   

2. Tunneling Git Protocol through HTTP Connect Proxy (since it is blocked by firewall as well):

   $ sudo apt-get install socat #installing socat
   #creating script 'gitproxy':
   #!/bin/sh
   _proxy=<proxyadress>
   _proxyport=<port>
   
   exec socat STDIO PROXY:$_proxy:$1:$2,proxyport=$_proxyport
   
   #configuring git with the script:
   $ git config --global core.gitProxy <path_to_script>
   

3. Cloning poky (I have yocto running in a VM and inside the VM I install it on a separate .vdi (HDD) named poky):

   #Navigating to the disk 'poky':
   cd /media/poky
   sudo git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
   
   #yocto project kernel (bare clone)
   $ sudo git clone --bare git://git.yoctoproject.org/linux-yocto-3.19 linux-yocto-3.19
   
   #clone the bare clone
   $ sudo git clone linux-yocto-3.19 my-linux-yocto-3.19-work
   $ cd /media/poky/poky
   
   # Cloning Metadata in poky-dir
   $ sudo git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-yocto-kernel-extras
   meta-yocto-kernel-extras
   
   # Cloning BSPs in poky-dir
   $ sudo git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-intel.git
   

4. Build Process

   # Building images
   # Create branch
   $ git checkout -b fido origin/fido
   
   # Setting up OE-environment
   $ source oe-init-build-env
   
   # building OS image
   $ bitbake -k core-image-minimal
   

And here we are at the place I don't come further. Any tipps or workarounds like the one I managed with the Git-Tunneling or is it possible to get a list of the resources from the internet. Thank you in Advance !

(BTW: I am not hundred percent sure wheether this topic belongs to Super Users or to Stack Overflow, however I think you have to be versed in multiple programs etc. like wget, which is used by bitbake, so that its better put in here.)

Answer 1

It works for me with our proxy with the following configuration:

export HTTP_PROXY="<http://ip:port>"
export HTTP_PROXY="<http://ip:port>"
export HTTPS_PROXY="<http://ip:port>"
export FTP_PROXY="<http://ip:port>"
export NO_PROXY="localhost, 127.0.0.1 "
export http_proxy="<http://ip:port>"
export https_proxy="<http://ip:port>"
export ftp_proxy="<http://ip:port>"
export no_proxy="localhost, 127.0.0.1"
export proxy="on"
export use_proxy="yes"
