Description Vladimir Smelov 2015-07-28 13:27:46 UTC 
SKIP_FILEDEPS allows to remove all files from "Provides" section of rpm package.
This is required for case of packages with prebuilt binaries containing prebuilt libraries like libstdc++ and glibc.

Hi, 

I have added a new variable description for SKIP_FILEDEPS.  I made some assumptions regarding use.  You should check to see if they are okay.  I have set the bug to IN PROGRESS REVIEW.  Here are the changes:

Thanks

Hi,
I checked docs available via http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-SKIP_FILEDEPS
It looks fine.
