Dependencies not getting .ipks

[Rodrigo Vivi]

I don't like this bitbake (OE?) behavior too...

I'd like to have all rdepends ipkg/deb packages ready for use...
well, bitbake assumes that if you have explicit asked for some package
A you do want package A deployed only.

But fortunately there is a workaround:

Create a meta-blah.bb containing:

RDEPENDS = "your_blah_package"
 # Forcing build all rdepends
do_blah[nostamp] = "1"
do_blah[recrdeptask] = "do_package_write"
addtask blah before do_build after do_install

I hope it helps...

Cheers,
vivijim
