Just couple questions - wouldn't it be better to send fixes to the underlying layers that you integrate, instead of holding them in your own integration layer? And if it's for your unique ti8148-based board, then it's fine, it may warrant a separate BSP layer for that. But why did you chose to pre-integrate other layers into yours? Although you seem to be using sub-modules, but it's still pre-integration, a-la Yocto/Poky releases... Ah, and BTW, I think your layer ordering and priorities[1] are slightly wrong, as usually BSP layers reside lower than Software layers (i.e. meta-oe), but Distro layers (i.e. angstrom) should probably be on top... -- Denys _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
