Why not? Just the SRC_URI or other issues?

Well, I'm not happy with the idea of duplicating all this code.
shadow-native shouldn't exist and this makes things worse. With a few
minutes, I could write this patch:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/commit/?h=rpurdie/t2&id=0730423fcda165a12112182b093d2f6df2f9c5eb

which at least makes the situation a bit less ugly. I guess I did spend
years doing these kinds of patches back when we had 50 versions of
everything and BBCLASSEXTEND didn't yet exist. With a few more minutes
perhaps I can get rid of the separate -native, now the differences are
clear. meld is a nice too for this kind of work btw.

Cheers,

Richard
