this snippet from image_types.bbclass:
if "elf" in alltypes:
alltypes.remove("elf")
if "cpio.gz" not in alltypes:
alltypes.append("cpio.gz")
alltypes.append("elf")
# Filter out all the compressed images from types
for type in alltypes:
... snip ...
i was going to trivially fix that comment (it's now "alltypes", not
"types"), but i was distracted by the code above that -- what the heck
is going on there? what's the rationale for removing elf, then adding
cpio.gz and elf back on at the end? if someone can clarify that, i
can add that as more comment, as well as a few other tweaks in that
file for more documentation for anyone reading TFS. thanks.
