Right, the layer index really is the right place to be doing this. I've filed a bug: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12129 > Maybe it is time for oe-core-not-so-common-depends? I'd think we'd want a bit more definition around what goes into such a layer, that title is pretty vague.
