For example, if you have task do_c depending on task do_b which in turn depends on task do_a, and you do deltask do_b, then task do_c's dependencies will not be updated to include task do_a, the result being that do_c may be free to run before do_a. If you wish such dependencies to stay intact you should use the noexec varflag to disable the task instead of deleting it with deltask e.g.: do_b[noexec] = "1" 51231 1 srifenbark 2015-05-22 15:27:15 +0000 Paul, I have completed the change iterations. I will set this to IN PROGRESS REVIEW for now. If I don't hear back in a week then it will move to RESOLVED. http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.9/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual.html#deleting-a-task Thanks, Scott 51398 2 srifenbark 2015-06-01 18:54:39 +0000 Hi, Received no feedback so I am moving this bug to RESOLVED and setting the documentation flag to "done."
