commit 806811bf2d72827d3031bfcd5dbab1e82324d34e breaks distros

[Mike Westerhof]

The following commit breaks numerous non-angstrom distros:

commit 806811bf2d72827d3031bfcd5dbab1e82324d34e

    angstrom: clean ups of the external toolchain support


The symptom of the problem is this:

$ bitbake slugos-image
ERROR: Unable to parse conf/bitbake.conf (Could not include required
file conf/distro/include/glibc.inc)
$

It seems that glibc.inc has been removed, and possibly replaced by
either an external or an internal variant, but no non-angstrom distros
have been updated.

Please forgive me if there was a discussion of this change on the
mailing list; I have been locked away behind corporate firewalls, and
living on-the-road for the past months, and just haven't been able to
keep up. :(

How do I fix this, please?

Denys works a 9-5 real job. I'll try and chase him down over the weekend.

Mike,

I'm sorry to hear you are having problems with my commit.

I was told conf/distro/include/glibc.inc was only used by Angstrom. And 
grepping through files recursively kind of proves it - there are no in-tree 
distros using this file. There is another glibc.inc in recipes/glibc, but 
that's obviously a different one.

I also ran a test build of minimal-image using minimal distro w/o any parsing 
issues.

It looks like you may have out-of-tree distro which uses glibc.inc file in the 
conf directory. If this is the case, I apologize for removing it and would be 
happy to restore it for you.

Minimal uses its own set of files so this change wont affect it.
Looking at the patch I wonder virtual packages are now
picked up when you angstrom build which uses internal toolchain/glibc
