Description Paul Eggleton 2011-09-22 10:25:14 UTC

Seems that the -D option is not working after revision 7ee93b206a6389e6eb7b9440dc2fae801c77bc9b (Bitbake rev: 45aad2f9647df14bcfa5e755b57e1ddab377939a). The option (or indeed multiple additions, e.g. -DDD) has no effect on the console output; adding -v as the commit message suggests has no apparent effect either.
