Thanks, I was unaware of that script. But not really want I want to do.
We are going to have multiple BSP layers sourced from BSP suppliers, and=20
customer specific layers on top of this.
When it comes to testing, we want our test-objects(binary packages) to=20
differ depending on which layers appended them,
so that we can easily automate a testing procedure, and reduce possible=20
permutations of testobjects.(For unit testing).

Also, when you see bash_4.2-r2+meta-fsl-ppc.0+meta-ti.2_ppce500mc.ipk,=20
you directly see who manipulated the contents
of the bash package. And where eventual failures could originate from.
