From 73c307be9a0f83c62830f3d6770e09d732ac05f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Konrad Scherer Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 16:05:58 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] bitbake: ui: Improve error message if bitbake cannot import python curses module On some SuSE systems, the curses python module is not installed by default. Instead of a python failure, we want a nicer error message. (On SuSE systems the package is typically python-curses.)
