TMDXIDK5718: Processor SDK AM57x : Adding packages

Peter Hong

Hi.

I created and have been using the default linux bootable image provided in the SDK. It comes with Python 3. In order to continue evaluation, I need to get additional packages (i.e. sudo apt install). It appears, however, The usual "apt" is not available; "pip" is not available for Python 3 either. What is the process for obtaining packages?

Hello Peter,

Please note that the default Linux bootable image and file-system provided in the SDK is based on Arago and built using the Yocto.Project. To add additional package on Yocto, the "apt" is not supported.

To add packages to the filesystem, We suggest you to follow the answer posted here: https://e2e.ti.com/support/processors-group/processors/f/processors-forum/658611/linux-processor-sdk-am57x-adding-python-packages

Thanks.
