This is a pretty major change and we likely need a bit more of an idea
of impact.
Which architectures did you test? Often, x86 is a bad choice here and
we'd need something cross (arm/mips/ppc) to ensure it really is doing
the right things. We also need to assess a bit more than just sato. We
can run this up on the autobuilder and see what happens.
A post to the architecture list is probably needed so everyone knows
this is happening (or at least being considered).
I do worry how much of meta-oe may be affected by this.
Martin: Any opinion on this?
Cheers,
Richard
