Hi Phil,
I think you had suggested using add_task to insert a Python block after
do_fetch and before do_compile to modify RRECOMMENDS_${PN} conditionally
based on ${WORKDIR}/defconfig.
What I'm wondering is how would that modification get persisted if, say,
bitbake failed during do_compile, and then I restarted it? Would it
think from the stamp that it's already done do_mangle_rrecommmends, and
not bother running it again? Then RRECOMMENDS_${PN} would go back to
whatever it was at parse time, i.e. no busybox-syslog. Is there a way
around that?
Thanks,
Mike
