**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jul 23 02:59:58 2016 Jul 23 21:47:26 When doing package splitting, will the order of PACKAGES be honored and guaranteed? It would be awfully nice if it could, because then could the first package cherry pick, while the second did a catch of the reset without being specific Jul 23 22:15:54 sveinse: it is Jul 23 22:16:19 There's PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN for precisely that reason Jul 24 00:41:00 neverpanic: So I should not set PACKAGES="my list" either, because that will override the default value, including the P_B_P value, right. Amongst others. Jul 24 00:43:09 Point is, there is no ${PN} package in my case, so I set PACKAGE="${PN}-a ${PN}-b". Which is proabably fine, as I control the packages and the sequence. But by doing this I remove the -dbg, -dev and -doc (plus some other). Is that frowned upon to do? Jul 24 00:46:27 Yes Jul 24 00:46:40 Instead just mark ${PN} as empty, by setting ALLOW_EMPTY_$PN Jul 24 00:57:24 neverpanic: All right. Thanks. Change applied Jul 24 00:59:37 (It's a proposed subject to put into "recipes 101" or "recipe writing best practices". It's these small policies like this that makes out a great recipe from a not no great recipe, right.) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Sun Jul 24 02:59:58 2016
