This reverts commit 10aa1291979fb90bed1beb49be4d406ed0e1e4d5. As there is no build dependency between libubootenv and the configuration of u-boot there is no reason to check for UBOOT_CONFIG or UBOOT_MACHINE by adding the class uboot-config. Revert this in order to remove useless workaround in bsp layer (meta-freescale).This was added to address failures in world builds: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/141757 If this is not required, then I think we'd need to address those failures.
Thanks for the pointer about the reason for this patch. I searched a bit but could not find it. Can you please help me define 'world builds'? By reading the mail thread my thoughts are that the obvious thing is that the build has a bad configuration as u-boot is skipped. This should be the thing to solve. Do we have other examples in oe-core where we have a RRECOMMENDS and a requirement that another package is built. Isn't RDEPENDS used for that case? Best regards, /Peter
