![]() The provided packages by a skipped recipe are supposed to be listed in SkippedPackage.rprovides, which is used when generating a meaningful error message when a build fails because of a skipped package. Previously this variable only contained the contents of ${RPROVIDES}. However, most recipes don't define RPROVIDES, they define RPROVIDES_<pkg> for each package they provide. Additionally, the recipe provides the packages in PACKAGES without them being included in ${RPROVIDES}. Before this change, having a runtime dependency on a skipped non-recipe package would result in a build error stating that the build failed because the package was skipped, but without providing any reason for why it was skipped.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
