Any news?
Today tzdata from meta-oe still fails miserably

| ERROR: Function 'Fetcher failure for URL: '
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2011g.tar.gz;subdir=tzdata-2011g'. Unable
to fetch URL
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata2011g.tar.gz;subdir=tzdata-2011g from any
source.' failed
NOTE: package tzdata-2011g-r10.0: task do_fetch: Failed
ERROR: Task 3545 (/oe/meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-extended/tzdata/
tzdata_2011g.bb, do_fetch) failed with exit code '1'

Note the two issues here:

1) it try to fetch the old 2011g
2) SRC_URI differs (subdir)
in meta-oe SRC_URI = "
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata${PV}.tar.gz;subdir=${BPN}-${PV}"
in oe-core  SRC_URI = "
ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/tzdata${PV}.tar.gz;name=tzdata"

So, finally, about taking the 'good' bits form the meta-oe recipe...which
ones?
Offhand, I see differences in tzdata's do_install (build${prefix}, timezone
and localtime) and for tzcode-native just a pointless NATIVE_INSTALL_WORKS =
1.
Ah, imho having an inc for a single recipe is also overkill.

Am I missing more?
