I did change that manually because I assumed it was a typo. However it make
sense to add consolekit as a runtime dependency, but the documentation
specifically says PACKAGECONFIG will add to DEPENDS. How is it different in
this patch? The PACKAGECONFIG[systemd] is clearly specifying a build time
dependency, why the PACKAGECONFIG[consolekit] is specifying a runtime
dependency? How can I discriminate in this context?
I spoke to Radu online already, but I'll repeat again here in case
anyone else is confused by PACKAGECONFIG.
The latest documentation is here:
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-P
The key point is that the 3rd argument is DEPENDS, and the fourth is
RDEPENDS. Many instances of PACKAGECONFIG will leave out the fourth,
but in this case the third is empty (note the extra commas) so
consolekit is added as a runtime dependency.

Thanks guys for the clarification. Very useful info, I didn't notice the
extra comma.
Radu
