That is not the entire story though. If you have COPY_LIC_MANIFEST and<br>
COPY_LIC_DIRS set in your configuration, the relevant licenses will be<br>
installed in the image, and for licenses specified with beginline and/or<br>
endline this only includes the specified lines.<br>

Then, if the license requires that you include the copyright information,<br>
which is pretty common, e.g., BSD, leaving out that part just to avoid<br>
having to update the recipe once a year means that you are not really<br>
complying with the license... And neither will any users of the layer<br>
be who believe they are covered license wise by including the license<br>
information bitbake produces and installs in their images.<br>

Once a year times the amount of recipes one maintains. Which, for me is 111 oe-core recipes, plus 76 oe-core recipes that Jussi Kukkonen left behind. How many recipes do you guys keep up to date on a regular basis? :-)<br>

We actually have an open bug to provide better tooling for manually comparing the licenses [1], but no progress has been made with that for a long time. Paul, how is it now?<br>
