Thanks for analysing this. What is the correct thing to happen in this situation? Should do_configure be run but not do_populate_sysroot? Or, should the fact that do_configure needs to be run stop the sstate solution from being considered valid altogether and force recipe1 to be compiled, installed and populate_sysroot'ed in the traditional manner? Thanks. Mike. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
