[oe] Override problems in bitbake trunk/1,8

[Richard Purdie]

Hi,

This is an expansion of the issue reported in
http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2601


If you have a .bb file and set:

PN = gtk+
OVERRIDES = "OVERRIDES="poky:linux-gnueabi"

FRREC_${PN} = "foo1"
FRREC_${PN}_append_poky = " foo2"
FRREC_${PN}_append_linux = " foo3"
FRREC_${PN}_append_linux-gnueabi = " foo3"

GRREC = "foo1"
GRREC_append_poky = " foo2"
GRREC_append_linux = " foo3"
GRREC_append_linux-gnueabi = " foo3"

You get the expected:

GRREC="foo1 foo2 foo3"

but the ${PN} breaks things somewhere and gives:

FRREC_gtk+="foo1"

I suspect something is wrong in the overrides handling, maybe to do with
expandKeys. Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers,

Richard
