**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue May 19 02:59:57 2020 May 19 04:51:39 JPEW: Yupp.... using it now May 19 04:51:57 i also looked at YOE May 19 04:53:43 https://github.com/YoeDistro/yoe-distro May 19 06:38:16 fwiw, we have been using crops in production for the last 3-4 years. And we are extremely happy. May 19 17:37:19 would it be sensible to make "devtool modify foo" look at BBCLASSEXTEND and set EXTERNALSRC_pn-foo-native, etc. in addition to jusr pn-foo? May 19 17:37:39 kind of caught me off guard that it doesn't May 19 17:38:36 or is the concern racing on use of the source tree? May 19 18:16:04 smurray: I thought it creates branches if therr were conditional patching going on May 19 18:17:54 khem: I've seen that before, so it might be related to that. There's a comment in the devtool generated bbappend that it's explicitly not creating the EXTERNALSRC definitions for the BBCLASSEXTEND versions May 19 18:19:38 khem: I guess it'd take non-trivial hackery to support May 19 18:26:48 yes indeed, I think devtool should be kept as simple as possible May 19 18:27:22 it should be app dev focussed perhaps more than system developer/OE level hacking May 19 18:28:14 it has potential of becoming bitbake-on-bitbake if not checked May 19 18:28:18 yeah May 19 18:29:18 lot of folks know git and few commands to deal with, but they are super programmers for some specialized fields so its better to keep their workflow simple May 19 18:29:50 everyone is not a build and configuration engineer May 19 18:35:34 khem: devtool modify foo-native seems to do the right thing, so that's workable, if not quite what I'd expect to do on first thought May 19 18:36:18 yes thats perhaps also logical May 19 18:45:10 khem: I suspect some documentation wrt workflow could be improved. I find it still a hard sell to get people to try devtool May 19 21:13:29 smurray: I hear you, perhaps a bug in yocto bugzilla might be on cards **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed May 20 02:59:58 2020
