It's helpful when mapping recipes to packages at least. Waxing philosophical, maybe PR could be viewed as a "recipe revision" with PKGR being the "package revision", in the same sense as for PE/PKGE and PV/PKGV. That's just an excuse I made up just now though. I intuitively expected PR to be in there. > Cheers, > Paul Cheers, Ulf -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
