I’ll have to take a look. At Mentor we’ve been using the license manifest coupled with https://github.com/MentorEmbedded/meta-mentor/blob/master/classes/deploy-license-manifest.bbclass. We’ll probably keep both, use yours for more convenient user examination, and keep the rest for sending off to legal departments and whatnot. -- Christopher Larson clarson at kergoth dot com Founder - BitBake, OpenEmbedded, OpenZaurus Maintainer - Tslib Senior Software Engineer, Mentor Graphics
