You don't need to use any special classes to get this behaviour. Put this in your recipe (replacing 1.2.3 with the appropriate base version you are building): PV = "1.2.3+git${SRCPV}" and enable the PR service, which will ensure SRCREV changes always increment the version properly: http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#working-with-a-pr-service Cheers, Paul -- Paul Eggleton Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
