Some world builds without the DFs: x11 or opengl fail unless
I run: bitbake -k world. Ideally packages would exclude themselves
from world builds if a required DF isn't set. Otherwise identifying
broken packages in bb world builds is not straight-forward. I can
add the DFs in to my world test builds but then I'm not really
exercising at least some of the recipes properly.

So....
What are the rules around DISTRO_FEATURES and bitbake world builds?
What testing has been done and which if any DFs are mandatory.


I copied the default DFs from
meta/conf/distro/include/default-distrovars.inc:
DISTRO_FEATURES_DEFAULT ?= \
"alsa argp bluetooth ext2 irda largefile pcmcia usbgadget \
 usbhost wifi xattr nfs zeroconf pci 3g nfc x11"

into my conf/local.conf file as:
DISTRO_FEATURES = \
"alsa argp bluetooth ext2 irda largefile pcmcia usbgadget \
usbhost wifi xattr nfs zeroconf pci 3g nfc x11"

and I if I do a bitbake world it fails with:


NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies

If I drop x11 from the DF list things are even worse.

I tried to sprinkle these recipes with:
   REQUIRED_DISTRO_FEATURES = "opengl"
but just as I thought, that didn't work either.
