OK, I'll send patch for layer.conf, but the point is that incorrectly using allarch is worse than not using it at all. Most allarch recipes are very quick to build and their signatures stay valid for long time even after they are changed to TUNE_PKGARCH, but with issue like this and allarch they are rebuilt after each MACHINE switch. So on concrete example of SHR distribution with 3 supported TUNE_PKGARCHs in binary feed, it's faster to build 3x TUNE_PKGARCH usb-modeswitch-data and keep the same .ipk for some time than build it 3 times as allarch every single day in daily build which populates binary feed. -- Martin 'JaMa' Jansa jabber: [email protected]
