[Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>]

Peter, Arnout,

I'd like to apply some of the patches in this series in the current
cycle. See below.

These two are already applied.

I'd like to apply those two.

This one should instead be just before "core: change host RPATH
handling", it is not needed before.

And I'd like to apply all those ones, i.e the extract dependency idea
and killing DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ.

Are you OK with that ? If so, I'll respin just those ones after taking
Yann's feedback into account.

So if you have anything against the approach used in those patches,
please speak up ! :-)

Thanks!

Thomas
