I seem to recall something about this being harder with tiny as it removes things rather than just extending. But I can't put recall exactly what the issue was (or if there was one). I shall try it this way if you prefer this approach. I felt the .inc approach provided a more explicit building block mechanism which seemed more intuitive and less prone to accidental inclusion. But, I don't feel strongly one way or the other. -- Darren Hart Intel Open Source Technology Center Yocto Project - Linux Kernel _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
