It looks like this does not have any upgrade path from old task-*
recipes.

14:16:07 < JaMa> bluelightning: how do you ensure upgrade path on target from task-* recipes to packagegroup-*?
14:16:47 < JaMa> bluelightning: tasks are installed mostly by image recipe, so target will stay on task-* which won't be ever upgraded
14:21:34 < JaMa> ah, there are RPROVIDES at least in some renamed recipes
14:31:52 < bluelightning> JaMa: there's a RPROVIDES yes
14:47:57 < JaMa> bluelightning: and does RPROVIDES really work?
14:48:36 < JaMa> bluelightning: I've added it to all meta-oe/meta-smartphone/meta-webos task-* recipes including PR bump and nothing is upgraded on target
14:48:46 < bluelightning> JaMa: I'm not sure if it will help in that situation
14:48:57 < JaMa> bluelightning: I guess you have to add RREPLACES too

Cheers,
