[U-Boot] Question about FIT images with uboot 1.3.4

Hello All,

Which version of DTC must be used to get a working FIT image?
Release 1.2.0 understands the example doc/uImage.FIT/kernel.its, but
delivers an unbootable image. It fails on line 2285 ("Wrong FIT
format: no description\n") in common/image.c at

int fit_check_format (const void *fit)
{
       /* mandatory / node 'description' property */
       if (fdt_getprop (fit, 0, FIT_DESC_PROP, NULL) == NULL) {
               debug ("Wrong FIT format: no description\n");
               return 0;
       }

Version 1.1.0 of DTC complains about the format of the
doc/uImage.FIT/kernel.its file at the line:
data = /incbin/("./vmlinux.bin.gz");

So, at this moment FIT does not work at all...

So, does anybody knows what I need to do to get FIT images working on 1.3.4 ?
(Except debugging and patching the bug, which I can do later on when I
at least have something working to begin with)


Kind Regards,

Remy
