Info
titleDependent Bolt Packages:

To build an application that depends on base/runtime Bolt packages (for example, com.rdkcentral.base+<version>.bolt), ensure those dependent packages are available first. Either build them separately or place the corresponding .bolt artifacts in the following
location before running the build. So in this case, please make sure the base bolt package is present in the following location:

Code Block
build/bolts/


Code Block
git clone https://github.com/rdkcentral/meta-bolt-wpe.git
cd meta-bolt-wpe
git checkout <branch/revision/tag>
source setup-environment

# Create bolt-tools and hash it
bitbake bolt-env && hash bolt

#build wpe bolt package
bolt make wpe
