Support for HOSTTOOLS_WHITELIST_GPL-3.0 (originally named GPLv3_HOSTTOOLS_WHITELIST) was first added here:
http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=179e056519c5ad761b2d942d7196664874c155e4 The implementation in base.bbclass has been tweaked a few times since then, but even in the original, it looks like license checking was skipped for native recipes (and anything else which could be described as a "host tool"), so providing a whitelist of specific host tools looks redundant. The current version does the same. Does anyone know how HOSTTOOLS_WHITELIST_GPL-3.0 is intended to be used or when it might be necessary? Any objections to a patch to remove it? -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
