It seems to me that bitbake.conf must be first as it seems impossible to override settings in that file using a soft assignment. In particular, local.conf often has soft settings but these dont' seem to change what's in bitbake.conf -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------
