pstaging catches the implicit required deps, but not the implicit optional deps. IMHO it would be nice, and I think there's been a general OK in this direction, to move towards DISTRO_FEATURES (or so?) toggling --enable-<feature>. That's what's needed in this particular case. -- Tom Rini <[email protected]> Mentor Graphics Corporation _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
