Yes, it mainly blew up because the tested oe-core branch had the removal of lzo 
but meta-oe didn’t have the addition.

Would you like a resend of the xen patch to add an option, but leave it as 
enabled?  Or will you merge this patch which disables lzo?

I’ve also just sent a RFC patch for xen to disable LZO entirely, but I’ll leave 
that up to Bruce to decide.  If lzo is removed from core it will be added to 
meta-oe, so xen will continue to build either way.

right.

We'll keep it as optional.

But isn't this just a timing issue for the failure ? Or are we missing a 
dependency in meta-virt on where this landed in meta-oe ? We definitely have 
meta-oe dependencies in meta-virt, so the AB should already have those in place 
.. so this must have only blown up because it hasn't landed in meta-oe yet (nor 
should it probably have, as this is a test of the removal in OEcore) .

Either way, I'll merge the meta-virt, make-it-optional patch shortly and this 
should be good to go.
