I mean FOUR recipes for alsa-plugins? I am trying to fix the pyqt recipe in meta-oe, and had th eidea to check for it in other layers. This leads me to meta-ivi-demo, which has an update for sip-native and another pyqt recipe. To be fair, they are using Qt5, so it is a little more complex. At any rate, we need to stop ripping recipes out of layers and maing local copies, or worse, updating our local copies and not the primary layer. The intent of the layer concept was not to fragment development across many separate repositories. I see a couple of issues we need to start talking about: 1) recipes that need to move closer to core because a range of other packages use them. 2) people feel they have to remove recipes from layers and make local copies. And just so people know what seriously pisses me off :) Copying a recipe from a layer, updating it, and not sending the recipe to the layer they got the update from. Thanks for letting me vent, Philip -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list [email protected] https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
