[OE-core] [RFC PATCH 0/7] Split apart qemu-config

[Paul Eggleton]

*** Note: this is an RFC series, please do not merge yet! ***

Split apart qemu-config, replacing it with a task (task-core-device-devel)
that is not specific to usage together with QEMU. oprofileui is now split
into client and server parts, and together with the prevous work to merge
dbus-launch back into the main dbus package, this makes things work much
more smoothly when this task is installed with x11  removed from
DISTRO_FEATURES. Additionally it was found that oprofileui was not
correctly depending on oprofile itself, and this has also been fixed.
(This is a reworking of a patch series I sent out some time ago.)

There is a remaining question however - is this task actually useful?
For reference, it enables the following:

1) Use of distcc to accelerate compiling applications within the
   emulated environment using direct compilation on the host
2) Accessing the root filesystem via NFS
3) Remote profiling via oprofileui
4) Running applications in the target from the Anjuta IDE
5) bash shell

Whilst these might have minor utility on an individual basis, I can't
honestly say that that the overall set seems particularly useful to me
as a whole; and some of the parts are less useful than they used to be -
is oprofile commonly used these days now that tools like perf are
available? Is anyone actually using Anjuta for embedded development? For
that matter, does anyone regularly build applications within QEMU
emulated targets?
