Hello, I have a question regarding the behaviour of .bbappend files.
== Situation sketch I have the following situation: - I have a YOCTO setup with all my nessecary layers. - I have a board support package layer for my embedded target. - I have a meta-xenomai layer -> The meta xenomai layer provides 2 .bbappend files. 1 which appends the linux kernel recipe and one which appends the default base image from the board support package. - I have an additional layer with recipes which are specific for our project. == Details I am using the Gumstix bsp layers. Now I have the following situation gumstix provides the following recipe: gumstix-console-image.bb in my meta-xenomai layer i have a: gumstix-console-image.bbappend -> this adds the xenomai userspace libraries to the image installation. Now for our project I created on our "meta-project" layer a project-image.bb with the following: require recipes-images/gumstix/gumstix-console-image.bb # Other installation requirements follow from here. == Expectations and results I am using .bbappend files, such that I can easily disable the xenomai layer without breaking the yocto build environment. however with all layers enabled when i: bitbake project-image the gumstix-console-image.bbappend alterations do not take effect, so my question is: When using require to include a recipe, is it correct that for that recipe all .bbappend files are ignored? If so, is there a way such that still can have the described behaviour. Any help or pointers to documentation are much appreciated.
