Sorry, this was a mild case of cargo cult programming on my part. I saw the RPROVIDES in the udev recipe, and while I couldn't find it ever being used, I couldn't preclude the possibility that some other layer somebody else would use might depend on it. I agree that AFAIK, this code is dead, and the patch can be dropped. > Cheers, > > Richard -- Richard Tollerton <[email protected]> -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
