Description Ross Burton 2015-02-24 17:18:11 UTC

There should be a class for dealing with waf.  python-pycairo has the basic skeleton of it, but waf also supports out-of-tree builds (cd $S; ./waf configure --out $B; cd $B; ./waf build...) so there's plenty for the class to handle.

What about meta/classes/waf.bbclass in OE-Core?

    waf.bbclass: add waf build system class


See, I thought I'd done this before, and looked, but obviously my eyesight is failing.

Quickly closes it before the triage call!!
