[SOLVED] Getting errors in building image for raspberry pi3 (Yocto-Dunfell)

Issue

I’m trying to build the image for raspberry pi 3, but getting a few errors. I hope someone here will help me to solve it. I’m using Ubuntu 20.04 on VirtualBox for this build. Run the below commands but get errors as outputs.(screenshots attached below)

    $ sudo apt-get install gawk wget git-core diffstat unzip texinfo gcc-multilib build-essential chrpath socat cpio python python3 python3-pip python3-pexpect xz-utils debianutils iputils-ping libsdl1.2-dev xterm
    $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky -b dunfell
    $ cd poky
    $ git clone https://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded -b dunfell
    $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-raspberrypi -b dunfell
    $ source oe-init-build-env

    > I’m building the image for raspberry pi 3 so set the machine name to raspberrypi3 as : machine ?= "raspberrypi3" and commented other machine names in local.conf
    > To generate an SD card image file I’ve written IMAGE_FSTYPES = "tar.xz ext3 rpi-sdimg"
    > In bblayer.conf file I’ve added meta-raspberrypi layer path.

    $ bitbake core-minimal-image

Solution

Sounds like a broken package. First things, try cleaning it and rebuilding

bitbake -c cleanall unzip  
bitbake -c cleanall binutils
bitbake unzip  
bitbake binutils

Also, do you actually need those packages? If not just remove them by adding to your local.conf

IMAGE_INSTALL_remove = " unzip binutils "
