Could you expand on that reason? I find the patch quite a useful
refactoring. If we don't allow patches like this going in, we're
doomed into living with misnomers forever -- and we all know that
there are quite a few in OE metadata.
If you want to fix such misnomers it needs to be done with more thought
and publicity to allow external repos to catch up. No need to stab
people in the eye to make 2 people feel better.
And FWIW, psplash runs at shutdown as well, so it isn't really a
bootsplash ;)
Trying to get this back on the issue at hand ....
It appears to me (who isn't really folloing the thread), there are two
issues, an immediate problem that Rolf's second patch addresses, and the
actual variable name issue, which appears worthy of further discussion
and thought.
It is always good to keep individual changes as simple as possible and
avoid mixing too many thoughts in one commit.
