As hard as it is. I agree that it should be backed out and put in a branch and tested on non EABI systems. We find new regressions every day. The current list of today are: - insane.bbclass needs 'linux' and 'linux-gnu'. Linux for native packages and the other for our one - bitbake meta-toolchain does not work due task-sdk-base, I think it is due the change but I don't know. regards holger PS: I'm willing to help by compile testing non ARM builds
