At least on place in either the bitbake or oe manual, the stuff under
the dev/packages/ is referred to as packages.
In the bitbake help, the usage is show as $bitbake [option] [package].
How can base-task of gpe-image be a package.
I know this this sounds really picky;)
But I am struggling over what to call the object of a bitebake. (In
make they are call targets .ie make all, but in the embedded world
target is used to refer to the device for which you are building.)
$bitbake vim
$bitbake task-base
$bitbake gpe-image
$bitbake world
A package, a task, an image, and world?
thanks
