We have an issue in the dora branch at the moment. When I merged in the set of bug fixes post release, I added:
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=dora&id=0bd63125c3b44a656e44f2a76cc5f832c9db4bbd which wasn't entirely intentional. It changes the behaviour of FILESOVERRIDES. The bug there is real with "arm" overrides being preferred to "armv7a" for example and other strange/incorrect ordering. It was in fact impossible to override certain things which people needed to in some circumstances and defeated the purpose of OVERRIDES. I don't doubt this change is correct in master, the question is whether it should be in dora. The issue is that some layers don't work correctly before/after the change and we now have a bit of a confused situation. Our options are either: a) Revert the change in the branch. Anyone who adapted to the correct behaviour on the branch would need to revert those changes b) Keep this change in there and adapt layers to fix any incorrect behaviour. I'm open to either option but I think this needs discussion before we do anything. I'd appreciate other people's views, particularly those of layer maintainers.
