Hmm, your analysis seems sound enough. We do call the setVariable command on the cooker which I had expected to ensure the variable was set appropriately without a reparse. We can easily add a patch to trigger a reparse once IMAGE_FSTYPES is changed, as we do with several of the other preference values. Something like: joshual@shamshir:~/Projects/Yocto/poky-stable [josh/edison *] $ git diff diff --git a/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/crumbs/hobprefs.py b/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/crumbs/hob index 5dfb0e6..3f6f128 100644 --- a/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/crumbs/hobprefs.py +++ b/bitbake/lib/bb/ui/crumbs/hobprefs.py @@ -39,6 +39,7 @@ class HobPrefs(gtk.Dialog): self.selected_image_types = handler.remove_image_output_type(ot) self.configurator.setConfVar('IMAGE_FSTYPES', "%s" % " ".join(self.sele + self.reload_required = True def sdk_machine_combo_changed_cb(self, combo, handler): sdk_mach = combo.get_active_text() Cheers, Joshua -- Joshua Lock Yocto Project "Johannes factotum" Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
