I do that too. build folders are 'cheap' assuming good use of sstate and rm_work. my typical setup is: - one workspace for each OE release branch (trees checkout) - one <build> folder for each combination of <distro>-<machine> - one shared downloads folder for *all* builds across all workspace - one shared ssate for each workspace . i am not sharing sstate across OE releases, mostly because sstate-cache-management would always delete the wrong stuff otherwise. -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
