All I could find is OE TSC minutes from 7 May 2013 referring to some related list discussion: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/tsc/message/369?p=,,,20,0,0,0::Created,,PACKAGECONFIG,20,2,0,72188707 (9:47:21 AM) RP: bluelightning: I think this was to PACKAGECONFIG more recipes (9:47:28 AM) bluelightning: ah ok (9:47:36 AM) RP: bluelightning: remove the need to bbappend, have people set mode config options (9:47:51 AM) bluelightning: and PACKAGECONFIG to enable deps on things outside OE-Core as well presumably (9:48:01 AM) bluelightning: (as discussed on the ml a few weeks ago) (9:48:06 AM) fray: yup I spent last couple hours digging through my archives of openembedded-core and openembedded-devel lists around that time (Spring 2013), but besides general move to enable PACKAGECONFIG in recipes, I didn't see anything specific about crossing layer boundaries by PACKAGECONFIG dependencies, unfortunately. And it was a wild time - all the energy, extra activity, conflicts, flamewars - that definitely brought up some memories re-reading those discussions again... :) BTW, all the links on this page are now dead, since they point to the old mailman/pipermail archives: https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/TSC Michael, Is there any way to correct the links in bulk or preserve the old archives, so the old links would still work? -- Denys
