Yes, it is true, because the file is included and it is not anymore like a recipe that can be extend. It will be searched for a image_with_graphicsupport.bb append, not image_base.bbappend. IMHO you can easy reach your goal if you write a packagegroup recipe where you put all packages you have in the IMAGE_INSTALL of your image_base.bb. You can then have a .bbappend for the packagegroup in your BSP layer (and this then works) and you put the packagegroup in the IMAGE_INSTALL directive of both image_base.bb and Image_with_graphicsupport.bb. > or I wrong something else? > Best regards, Stefano Babic -- ===================================================================== DENX Software Engineering GmbH, Managing Director: Wolfgang Denk HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: +49-8142-66989-53 Fax: +49-8142-66989-80 Email: sba...@denx.de ===================================================================== -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
