[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] progress: Ensure missing start event is fired

[Richard Purdie]

The init function of the parent class fires a progress event for 0
progress rather than a start event. UI code was assuming that progress
events should always have a start event first. This change ensures that
the start event is correctly generated.

This fixes crashes that were seen in knotty in some configurations.
