Description Paul Eggleton 2016-06-08 03:03:32 UTC 
A while ago we borrowed code developed to support the "bulk change" functionality within the layer index to lib/oe/recipeutils.py in OE-Core. Since then the code has improved massively. The bulk change function works with master so in order to produce more accurate patches we could switch to calling into the OE code instead of having an effective outdated copy of it in the layer index - we'd just have to do an initial step in bulkchange.py where we checkout bitbake and OE-Core before calling into it.
