I also can't use the 'append' because it doesn't work with flags. I guess I only have the chance to use os-release.bbappend left. However, to maintain the layer YP compatible, I need to use an override, and this implies the use of another variable. MY_BUILD_ID = "my-build-id" MY_BUILD_ID_AUX:override = "${MY_BUILD_ID}" BUILD_ID = "${MY_BUILD_ID_AUX}" BUILD_ID[vardepsexclude] += "MY_BUILD_ID_AUX" However, I didn't want to have this in a bbappend because it's not very elegant and this is mostly meant to be used only in CI. There might be another way to do this, but I don't see how without using the weak assignment. Thanks Jose > > Cheers, > > Richard >
