observation: current dev manual, sec 5.1.3.2, provides an example for bbappend files:
"For example, consider how support plug-ins for the Qt 4 database are configured. The Source Directory does not have MySQL or PostgreSQL. However, OpenEmbedded's layer meta-oe does. Consequently, meta-oe uses append files to modify the QT_SQL_DRIVER_FLAGS variable to enable the appropriate plug-ins. This variable was added to the qt4.inc include file in the Source Directory specifically to allow the meta-oe layer to be able to control which plug-ins are built." but the meta-oe content related to this variable appears to have been removed some time ago: commit 64c6887ca19d2ce52e538186c93163dddf68438f Author: Paul Eggleton <paul.eggle...@linux.intel.com> Date: Wed Apr 10 15:57:59 2013 +0000 qt4: remove bbappend content These changes to Qt's configuration need to be applied in distro layers, not in meta-oe. so someone should probably come up with a different example of that. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
