Subject: [PATCH 1/3 v2] sanity.bbclass: Check for the known broken version of make
Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2013 09:08:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1372342113-32763-1-git-send-email-mark.hatle@windriver.com> (raw)

See GNU Savannah bug 30612 -- make 3.82 is known to be broken.

A number of vendors are providing a modified version, so checking
for just the version string is not enough.  We also need to check
if the patch for the issue has been applied.  We use a modified
version of the reproduced to check for the issue.
