goofing around with "bitbake -e" and, with a clean oe-core checkout,
both of the following work:
$ bitbake -e
$ bitbake -e core-image-core
now, just for fun, i added a trivial recipe file to that images/
directory to see what kind of error message i would get if i neglected
to include a license, so i added the rday.bb recipe file (one of the
files i was using to test assignment):
RDAY ??= "rday1"
RDAY ??= "rday2"
RDAY ?= "rday3"
then tested:
$ bitbake -e rday
Loading cache: 100%
|######################################################################| ETA:

ERROR: This recipe does not have the LICENSE field set (rday)

$
so that's pretty much what i expected. what i *didn't* expect was
that this would still work:
$ bitbake -e
while this would now fail:
$ bitbake -e core-image-core

the recipe file "rday.bb" is not being included in any of the other
images, so why should its lack of a license file cause that kind of
problem?
