Subject: PREFERRED_VERSION not being populated onto the rootfs image

In the latest stable version of Yocto, I've been building an image for a raspberry Pi board which has a wifi i/f on it. While trying to bring up the wifi connection I need to roll back the version of wpa_supplicant that it is using.

In the raspberrypi configure file I've put in "PREFERRED_VERSION_wpa-supplicant = "2.9". The version that is being used currently is 2.11.

I've then created a recipe file for that version and made sure that it compiles using bitbake. (Had some patching issues, all fixed).

I then run the command "bitbake core-image-minimal" and boot with the subsequent image. When I query the version of wpa-supplicant I get 2.11.

I'm unable to find any "PRIORITY" variable of any kind. Why is it grabbing the incorrect version? What have I forgotten to do?

Cheers!!
