Some packages are pulled as runtime dependencies (RDEPENDS from a package that is installed, or via the auto-RDEPENDS mechanism which detects if a package is a provider of a shlib required by another package). Some packages are pulled as runtime recommendations (RRECOMMENDATIONS from a package that is installed). Also, packages can be pulled for the same reasons by a machine conf file (c.f. MACHINE_[ESSENTIAL_]EXTRA_*). For RDEPENDS, except removing the package RDEPENDS-ing on the package you don't want to install, or removing the package you don't want to install from the list of RDEPENDS and adapting the package's recipe to build without (if even possible), there is no real way. To detect all recipes requiring this package at runtime, you can use PACKAGE_EXCLUDE = "<idontwantthispackage>" in your conf/local.conf and fix all the packages which are failing to build when that variable is set. For RRECOMMENDATIONS, you can try to use BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS in your image recipe. NO_RECOMMENDATIONS should work as well but it's more aggressive. Please have a look at all those variables in the mega-manual: https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/mega-manual/mega-manual.html Hopefully you don't need the tools from u-boot-fw-utils but know that it is sometimes used by upgrade SW such as SWUpdate if I'm not mistaken.
