Description Laurentiu Serban 2012-06-27 12:58:42 UTC
After selecting a machine, if the user changes the rootfs size, the recipes are parsed again
Comment 1 Shane Wang 2012-06-27 13:11:31 UTC
That was intended to be. Pass it to Dongxiao to give you more explanation.
Comment 2 Dongxiao Xu 2012-06-28 04:42:37 UTC
Some of the items in Settings page are sensitive to recipes/packages, for example, packaging type, users own variable setting, etc. For the rootfs size, this will impact the final image size and we need to re-calculte the package size, therefore we choose to reparse the recipes/packages.
Comment 3 Saul Wold 2012-06-28 14:45:53 UTC
This is not a bug, when items in local.conf such as the rootfs size, this will cause the parsing.  Any global metadata that is changed will case a reparse
Comment 4 Andreea Brandusa Proca 2013-07-18 10:24:40 UTC
Verified.
