The reason is that each recipe was processed using its own bitbake task; now they're handled in a for loop. I wanted to write a plugin to 'bitbake -layers' that would show an overview of recipe update status (a replacement for old checkpkg.csv file), but then realized nobody would want to wait for 12 minutes to get it :-( So it would be great to again be able to parallelize the processing. 84010 1 randy.macleod 2019-05-30 15:06:17 +0000 This is a work-around so this other api isn't urgently needed. 96888 2 randy.macleod 2023-10-24 14:24:37 +0000 Bulk move from 4.99 or 0.00 to 5.99
