When I start hob I see a number of "setVariable" commands running. These
get set in the core configuration but they do not get set on the
bitbake-worker side.

I don't know which variables get set this way but they won't have any
effect after this patch.

Which variables get set this way? (Easiest way to find out would be to
add print statements to the code I guess).

We may need to change those writes to become actual editing of
local.conf to set values for example.

Cheers,
