Description Paul Eggleton 2013-08-29 15:52:57 UTC 
There are now several scripts in scripts/ that need to be able to find bitbake and add its lib/bb directory to sys.path. Each of these scripts is doing this in a different way; it would be an improvement if we had one function to do this that all of the python scripts under scripts/ could make use of.

Scripts that need to do this currently include:

scripts/bitbake-whatchanged
scripts/buildhistory-diff
scripts/contrib/list-packageconfig-flags.py
