After bisecting, I found that yes, this is now expected behavior: https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/commit/?id=568f62214bca3ac6d35eef8d9f4562596fb4c9ab Basically, that commit removes the recursive dependency on the packaging tasks. Using ‘bitbake --runall build ...’ as suggested in the commit does provide the behavior I want. For me, this is only an issue when building my package feeds. It seems that the documentation for the package feeds should be updated to reflect this change. Unless I missed something, if you follow the docs you end up with a broken feed that is missing a lot of needed packages. I can probably write something up if needed. I think just a paragraph explaining it in this section somewhere: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/singleindex.html#using-runtime-package-management Thanks, Robert
