followup to earlier post, it's easy enough to see the point of this code from core-image.bbclass:
... snip ... CORE_IMAGE_BASE_INSTALL = '\ task-core-boot \ task-base-extended \ \ ${CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL} \ ' CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL ?= "" IMAGE_INSTALL ?= "${CORE_IMAGE_BASE_INSTALL}" ... snip ... but i can see this snippet from meta/recipes-graphics/images/core-image-gtk-directfb.bb: ... snip ... inherit core-image IMAGE_INSTALL += "\ ${CORE_IMAGE_BASE_INSTALL} \ task-core-basic \ task-core-gtk-directfb-base \ " ... snip ... now this would seem to be exactly what the variable CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL was invented for, no? certainly the above will work but then what's the point of having CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL? however, if one used that, it's obvious that one would leave the line "inherit core-image" to near the bottom of the .bb file, but returning to my earlier question, what is the proper ordering of setting CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL and inheriting core-image. it's clear "inherit core-image" would always work *after*, but what about before? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
