[OE-core] [PATCH 1/1] insane.bbclass: Added QA test for unexpanded ${D}

[Alejandro Hernandez]

Yes, I agree the function should iterate over all the PACKAGES, but for 
the second matter, using the existing package variable handling 
infrastructure within the class, ends up expanding the variables before 
being able to check them , using getVar('FOO', False) is useless in this 
case, any suggestions?
