Hi Koen,
Ah, I see why this is still confusing.
Shane wrote:
"If the summary is missing, bitbake will create a default value for
summary. That is PN plus string " version " plus its version."
So apparently the HOB UI isn't actually "inheriting" the DESCRIPTION field.
Shane and Mark: can you clarify what the intended behavior is? Why would
the HOB UI not inherit DESCRIPTION?
