[OE-core] [PATCH 0/1] Change bzip2 to a less generic license

The license for bzip2 is not quite BSD. I have an email out to the
maintainer to see if we can utilize a common BSD license (or something
else) however, for now, we should revert bzip2 back to a special
license.

As busybox also utilizes a lightly modified bzip2, this also
effects busybox.

The following changes since commit 8609051d8d4f9fa565eb48418a87fa0048613374:

  bitbake.conf: Add CCACHE_DISABLE to BS_HASHBASE_WHITELIST (2012-10-02 18:12:48 +0100)

are available in the git repository at:
