Hi Khem,

I’d say no. There should no build time impact except for the do_rootfs behavior 
change when switching on NO_RECOMMENDATIONS.
Also, we’ve been using ‘RDEPENDS’ for glibc-dev until the recent ‘-dev’ package 
change.

Regards,
Qi

Subject: Re: [OE-core][PATCH] glibc: make glibc-dev depend on kernel headers

The linux kernel headers are necessary for glibc-dev, so
we need to use RDEPENDS instead of DEV_PKG_DEPENDENCY which
specifies RRECOMMENDS.

Currently, in case of NO_RECOMMENDATIONS set to "1", linux
kernel headers are not pulled in by glibc-dev, causing error
like below when compiling.

  fatal error: linux/errno.h: No such file or directory

The problem could be reproduced by setting NO_RECOMMENDATIONS
to "1" and then running:

  bitbake core-image-minimal -c populate_sdk
  bitbake core-image-minimal -c testsdk

Are there any build time implications of changing it from a recommendation to 
runtime dependency ?
