Trevor,
Right - I realize this is an issue or invalid assumption about the fsl
community repo. I'm thinking that repo should be perhaps reworked to
move its layers within the poky dir to avoid this and allow using
'bitbake-layers layerindex-fetch' as its such a useful tool.

Setting BBLAYERS_FETCH_DIR to my sources dir still ends up with
duplicates after a 'bitbake-layers layerindex-fetch meta-networking'
yet now there are no duplicate repos (just duplicate dirs in BBLAYERS)
BBLAYERS = " \
${BSPDIR}/sources/poky/meta \
${BSPDIR}/sources/poky/meta-poky \
${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \
${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-openembedded/meta-multimedia \
${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-freescale \
${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-freescale-3rdparty \
${BSPDIR}/sources/meta-freescale-distro \
/tmp/yocto/sources/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \
this one shouldn't be here and creates 'Duplicate inclusion'
warnings if it is
/tmp/yocto/sources/meta-openembedded/meta-python \
/tmp/yocto/sources/meta-openembedded/meta-networking \
"
Perhaps bitbake-layers could be made smarter about avoiding duplicate
dirs in this case.

Tim
