With the latest changes in toolchain generation which really maps to target images, probably we should unplug to legacy ones to make the toolchain generation more streamline.

Hi Brian, I may be missing a trick here, but for our internal toolchain I pretty much made a copy of meta-toolchain, made a copy of the toolchain-packagegroup, edited the package group to contain the same libs, apps etc as my image, pointed meta-toolchain copy to that package-group instead of the default and now when ever I make an update to the image it is just a case of running bitbake core-image-product meta-toolchain-product and that spits out both the image and customized toolchain. If I have missed something obvious then please excuse my ramblings :) Cheers, Jack. > > Regards, > > Brian > _______________________________________________ > yocto mailing list > yocto@yoctoproject.org > https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
