A shared library that is rebuilt but has no interface changes will trigger rebuilds on all recipes that DEPENDS on it, even if it is not really needed. Could the populate_sysroot task somehow check a hash of the exported files to see whether dependent packages really need to rebuild? 85201 1 richard.purdie 2019-10-03 15:33:01 +0000 We now have the hash equivalency server which addresses this problem.
