That depends. If the .bb does 'require foo.inc', then no, it will use the local one. If it does 'require recipes/foo/foo.inc', then yes, it will use the overlay one, assuming the overlay is before the main layer in your BBLAYERS. -- Christopher Larson clarson at kergoth dot com Founder - BitBake, OpenEmbedded, OpenZaurus Maintainer - Tslib Senior Software Engineer, Mentor Graphics _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
