Actually it didn't solve my problem... What I think that is right is bitbake provide an option to execute all tasks defined for all rdepends. I really believe that this is not a oe issue but a bb issue....
When I call for bitbake to build my package it execute just the necessary tasks for its depends... What I'm asking is a option to execute all tasks for each depends and rdepends... something more complete... I believe that I could create a "allpackages" inside base.bbclass like "buildall" using do_alltasks[recrdeptask] = "do_package_write" but I'm not convinced that this is the right way...
