I'm getting a very confusing error from bitbake. I'm using a snapshot
from Poky/Yocto (equivalent to 1.8 release) with my own $DISTRO
$ bitbake nand-installer-image

But, there is such a provider and I can build it (from the same build tree):
$ bitbake virtual/bootloader

After much research, I found that this is happening because I have
MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS="virtual/bootloader linux-firmware-iwlwifi-5xxx"
If I remove the 'virtual/bootloader' from MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS,
the confusion (and error) go away. Any ideas what's happening and why
I might be getting this confusing error?
Thanks
