Description Paul Eggleton 2017-09-26 22:21:03 UTC
Gather and show dependency relationships within the metadata. This isn't as simple as reading the current value of DEPENDS and RDEPENDS when parsing however - it is pretty common for this to be dynamic based on DISTRO_FEATURES, PACKAGECONFIG, or other variables. Hopefully we can extract and present the conditional values appropriately though as being able to see this information on the recipe detail page at least would be very useful. We just need to be clear to the reader (by way of warnings next to the presented dependency information) that the dependencies may change depending on their build configuration.
