A good rule of thumb is to never modify a metadata that is not yours. That applies to everything: * if you need to modify a bb file from a 3rd party library, create a bbappend file in your layer * if you need to modify a bbappend from a 3rd party, then create another bbappend in your layer And by 3rd party i mean any layer/tree which is not yours (OE-core, or any other layer your are using). > Thanks in advance > Nus > >
