Is this still an issue with OE?

I'm using 9.04 and was at least able to compile one basic image. I didn't go much further though? --Klausfpga 17:49, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

This is definitely still an issue.

I've tried compiling on a fresh install of latest ubuntu and got all these problems and more.

Correct me if i'm wrong but the whole point of the combination of CVS and bitbake is that it can be kept updated so users don't spend days working on workarounds and fixes, most of which could be fixed with some updated packages or .patch's.

I've spent the last 3 days fixing compiler errors and researching the multiple issues that have plagued the build with gcc 4.4 (the default in new ubuntu).

Surely if it doesn't build with 4.4, the fix should not be "install and use 4.1", it should be "the fix has been committed".
