more nitpickery, but was demonstrating OE recipe structure to class
yesterday, arbitrarily picked sysfsutils_2.1.0.bb, going through it
line by line, and a sharp-eyed student noticed this line:
S = "${WORKDIR}/sysfsutils-${PV}"
and wondered what it was doing there, since bitbake.conf sets the
default of:
S = "${WORKDIR}/${BP}"
and since, by default:
BP = "${BPN}-${PV}"
the source directory for sysfsutils would already appear to be
correct. setting S that way in the recipe obviously doesn't do any
harm, but is it accurate to say that, at least in this case, it's
unnecessary?
