I wasn't suggesting to add one, just using the possibility that one might want to add one as the rationale for keeping the download URL for the tarball out of the .inc file. It's all rather subjective and hinges on the likelihood of adding a _git.bb (don't include it in the .inc) vs. adding more than one versioned .bb (then including the common download in the .inc reduces duplication). -- Best Regards, Patrick Ohly The content of this message is my personal opinion only and although I am an employee of Intel, the statements I make here in no way represent Intel's position on the issue, nor am I authorized to speak on behalf of Intel on this matter. -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
