I don't know of any uses of it. The original intent was to allow a single recipe to emit multiple versions of a recipe, like BBCLASSEXTEND, thereby consolidating the metadata for an upstream project in a single place rather than it being scattered across .inc files, but I don't think anyone has needed to use it or tried to use it for anything. I still think there's value, but less so now that we try to keep the number of supported versions of a thing to a minimum. -- Christopher Larson _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
