Hi Ross, We don't have a ptest set in DISTRO_FEATURE so if that is the only way to pull in ptest I would say that is the reason for us at least on why there are so many bash dependencies. One recipe that I am looking into right now is util-linux which does have package util-linux-bash-completion but even the package util-linux seems to depend on bash and bash-completion when checking the dependencies by running bitbake -g util-linux and bitbake -g <image>. It is not clear why the package util-linux depends on bash and bash-completion. I have other recipes where it is also not obvious to me why they have a dependency to bash and bash-completion. One such recipe is a recipe that we have created and the only content in the package produced is a script and the script only has #!/bin/sh so not sure where this bash and bash-completion comes from it is not something we have added so maybe we have some underlying issue here that results in so many dependencies to bash and bash-completion. We have not set up this system ourselves, instead one of the HW suppliers starting with a Q ending with COMM which I must say I am not that impressed with has supplied the base that we are building on.
Thanks for your help anyway.
