Hm. saving some CPU cycles and wall clock time makes life a lot easier. Guess you haven't too much of a life then :-) No kidding, why not keep things simple. and elegant. (and actually people needing to maintain a lot of machines and keeping them up to date is somewhat an oddity anyway; My experience is that most embedded developers need to support only a few machines and typically freeze their sources and stabilize their product). Have fun! Frans _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
