Re: bbappend files and "ERROR: no recipes available for"

Hi Søren,

Thanks very much for the suggestion. It worked.


On the subject, I noticed you have to be careful when using "+=" and 
"=+" to append to variables in bb files. Here is my bbappend file, with 
the proper operator after the PACKAGES variable:

Previously I had "+=", and my custom rtl8168 package file was not being 
generated.

Regards,
Markus
