cyclic dependencie

cyclic dependencie

[Eric Bénard]

Hi,

while building minimal for an armv4 target on a freshly installed Fedora 14 
x86_64, I meet the following problem :

bitbake glib-2.0-native don't build because bitbake first tries to build 
desktop-file-utils-native which depends on glib-2.0-native and thus fails to 
configure with "No package 'glib-2.0' found" (I don't have glib-devel 
installed on the host).

desktop-file-utils-native seems to be listed as DEPENDS only in insane.bbclass.

Do you have any idea on how to fix this ?

Thanks,
Eric

if you can figure out which parts depend on each other may be we can
sort it out by splitting the recipes.

Disable QA, then you do not need desktop-file-utils
(or split the qa class in two parts; that would even be better as then
console only stuff does not need to drag in all the stuff
desktop-file-utils drags into the build).
