That changes > how we describe this. as an admittedly simple example, i ran across this in oe-core's scripts/contrib/documentation-audit.sh: for pkg in `bitbake -s | awk '{ print \$1 }'`; do ... snip ... if [[ "$pkg" =~ ^meta- || "$pkg" =~ ^packagegroup- || "$pkg" =~ -image ]]; then # Skip meta, task and image recipes continue fi checking that the package name starts with "meta-" seems to pretty clearly suggest that it will be treated differently than if it doesn't. i'm sure no one is terribly worried about that particular script, but it does seem to show an example of this. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
