Okay, good point. I should have thought harder to come up with a better example :-) It's funny, actually, that you're the one pressing me on this, I first encountered this issue and started thinking about it while trying to reproduce your "State of bitbake world" tests :-) Let's say you're a board maintainer; some people want to run gstreamer, some people want to try out systemd, some want to run wayland. Each of these requires tweaks to a conf/local.conf, no? I'm constantly changing my set of IMAGE_INSTALL_append's, fiddling with preferred versions, and distro features. If I'm just doing a one-off build then sure, adjust conf/local.conf manually. But if I'm perpetually rotating between a bunch of tests as repositories are modified, it would be easier to just specify which configuration I want from the bitbake cmdline. As I mentioned, maybe I'm doing things wrong? Maybe others have separate build locations, or maybe others define their own images which incorporate these adjustments? But I'd be quite surprised to find I'm the only one having to edit conf/local.conf to comment/un-comment blocks before every build. As a concrete example, currently I'm flipping between dora and master builds. For some reason I can't seem to reuse the same TMPDIR between them. So every time I "repo init -b <newbranch>" I then also have to edit conf/local.conf before bitbaking. -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
