Setting [vardeps] does not help.<br>
<br>
I suspect this may be related to the fact that METADATA_REVISION is defined this way:<br>
METADATA_REVISION ?= "${@base_detect_revision(d)}"<br>
And BitBake does not expand this to the proper value, thus does not see any difference.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any suggestion how to tackle this issue, and force BitBake to properly track dependency to METADATA_REVISION value?<br>

My original task is:<br>
Package feeds/SDK installers are versioned (git metadata revision). I am trying to create an opkg.conf file which will contain such versioned package feeds URL in SDK installer.
