This documentation will guide you to build Yocto images for VIM4/3/3L/1S.

Install essential dependencies. It is recommended to use Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 for compilation.

sudo apt update && sudo apt install git ssh make gcc libssl-dev \
liblz4-tool expect expect-dev g++ patchelf chrpath gawk texinfo chrpath \
diffstat binfmt-support qemu-user-static live-build bison flex fakeroot \
cmake gcc-multilib g++-multilib unzip device-tree-compiler ncurses-dev \
libgucharmap-2-90-dev bzip2 expat gpgv2 cpp-aarch64-linux-gnu libgmp-dev \
libmpc-dev bc python-is-python3 python2 libstdc++-12-dev xz-utils repo

1. Download the base SDK packages here: khadas_vims_yocto_sdk_base.tar.gz0x

2. Create and enter the working directory:

$ mkdir -p ~/project/vims-yocto-sdk && cd ~/project/vims-yocto-sdk

3. Decompress base SDK:

$ cat path/to/sdk-base-packages/khadas_vims_yocto_sdk_base.tar.gz* | tar -zxv -C ~/project/vims-yocto-sdk

4. Then you can see .repo derctory in ~/project/vims-yocto-sdk directory by using ls -la command.

$ ls -al ~/project/vims-yocto-sdk
total 12
drwxrwxr-x 3 nick nick 4096 Dec 31 14:40 .
drwxrwxr-x 3 nick nick 4096 Dec 31 14:39 ..
drwxrwxr-x 7 nick nick 4096 Dec 30 16:21 .repo

5. Sync and update code:

$ .repo/repo/repo sync -l 
$ .repo/repo/repo sync -c

6. Create a work branch for each repository:

.repo/repo/repo start vims_yocto --all

1.Select Configuration：
