Combining bitbake 1.26 with daisy

Combining bitbake 1.26 with daisy

[Paul Barker]

Hi all,

If someone were to pick up bitbake 1.26 and the daisy branch of oe-core and try
to use these together, what would be likely to go wrong?

I've got a vendor's BSP which does this and I need to decide whether to use the
combination they've tested or move back to bitbake 1.22. I sadly don't think
it's possible to move forward from daisy to fido here. I don't mind fixing up
the issues myself, just wondering if anyone has an idea of what is likely to
fail.

Thanks,

Gut instinct says it probably isn't too bad. 1.28 wouldn't work due to
the data store changes but 1.26 probably will with some cleanup to the
metadata for some of the stricter bitbake parsing tweaks at a complete
guess.
