Hi Holger, at the time when I wrote that script (sometime in 2005) it took quite some time for bitbake to run through all .bb files and parse/cache them. Especially since I modified the conf files (local.conf etc.) very often it was a full parse/cache run on 2000+ packges every time I started bitbake on my custom .bb files.
Therefore I tried to reduce the number of packages that are being parsed by only symlinking those that I needed for bootstrap-image. Sometime ago I tried bbing firefox, so the script also links all packages necessary for firefox. Since recently bitbake supports that very fast cache/parse run, and I think the mk_links function is no longer necessary. Chris Am Donnerstag, 8.
