[oe] selecting needed applications only

[mahmut g]

     Thanks Frans, in this case I have a new question. How can I determine the packages' dependency? For instance I just want to use QT on user space. Is that a way to learn which packages must be for QT? I am familiar with menuconfig selection, is there any tool/script which handles dependencies?
Regards,
MahmutG

There are too many files and rules. I had tired to use with beagle board and finally given up. The main reason for learning and using OE was that we wanted to use QT on our board. May someone advice any nice guide or documents which show how to select just wanted applications and how I can add a new application, it will be appreciated.
