Description Ross Burton 2015-02-02 14:38:07 UTC
With this sequence of expressions

FOOBAR = "a b c d"
BAZBAR = "b d"
FOOBAR_remove = "${BAZBAR}"

bitbake -e shows that FOOBAR is "a b c d"

The problem is when filtering from removesactive the values are expanded (so ${BAZBAR} becomes "b d") but this value isn't then split again.
