Nice clean-up patch Patrick.

I know what minux is but your next patch disables
bfs and I don't have a clue what that is.

Could you re-send with longer commit messages that
explains what the change is in a way that doesn't
require knowing 25 years of linux history? :)

Something like:


Disable building of {mkfs,fsck}.minix.

Disable filesystem tools for minix filesystems.
The Minix OS predates linux and such filesystems are rarely used.
No other oe-core or meta-oe recipes reference minux so
this should not cause secondary problems.

and something similar for bfs.

Thanks,
../Randy
