X-BeenThere: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.12 Precedence: list List-Id: Patches and discussions about the oe-core layer List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 27 Jan 2015 15:27:10 -0000 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hello, right now, for each GStreamer 1.0 package, there is a .inc file, a _git recipe, and a versioned recipe. The _git recipes made sense when GStreamer 1.0 was first introduced, because this happened during the 1.0 -> 1.2 version change, and 1.2 brought many essential enhancements, so many people wanted to build the git version. However, these days, I don't think the git versions are in such high demand. As a result, their SRCREVs haven't been updated for a very long time. Since this is pretty much dead, how about removing these recipes? cheers
