So, if I understand this correctly, you want to have this do_install_append? > The provides/depends will be needed still though, unless we teach the > manifest generator that some packages depend on PACKAGECONFIG flags. I was thinking the same. Changing the manifest generator might be cleaner than "patching" the manifest file like this. However, it would split the changes into three places: the recipe itself, the manifest generator, and the generated manifest file. This would make it more difficult for someone reading the recipe to understand how the mechanism works. Anyway, please tell how you would like me to proceed here: do you want to have the patch as it is done now or do you want to see the generator changed?
