Hi all,
I'm just curious that qemu-config RDPENDS on distcc:
meta/recipes-bsp/qemu-config/qemu-config.bb:RDEPENDS_${PN} = "distcc ..."
And there are 4 processes named "distcc" running after boot the target
with "runqemu qemux86".
We have distcc on the target, but no gcc or g++, can we remove it from
qemu-config's RDEPENDS?

Thanks
Robert

I think the idea was that if you wanted to do compilation on the emulated
target, having distcc would let you do it with much better performance. I
agree it seems that it's not particularly useful if you're never going to do
any compilation on the target though.
Cheers,
Paul

Thanks for your reply, so may I send a pull request to remove it from
qemu-config's RDPENDS?

I'll argue that qemu-config should be an image choice, not a machine choice :)

I'm sorry, but what does the "qemu-config should be an image choice, not a
machine choice" mean, please?
