OpenEmbedded Recipes

This is my log of trying to understand what each element of a .bb file is.

linux recipes

Definitions

'SECTION' - Top level package section. base, kernel, libs, x11, x11/utils. This appears to be similar to a bbclass. How is this used?

'DESCRIPTION' - Description of package to be built. I assume this shows up in the ipkg meta data.

'LICENSE' - GPL or other. How is this used?

'DEPENDS' - This package cannot be built/recipe not baked until the packages/recipes listed in DEPENDS have been built/baked.

'PR - How is this used?

'DEFAULT_PREFERENCE' - How is this used?
