glib-2.0: fix broken python script header on machines using buildtools
With buildtools (which contains Python) installed on a build machine,
glib-2.0's gtester-report script was ending up with the full path to
the installed python binary in the shebang, which when rpm packaging
was used led to this being added as a per-file dependency by rpmdeps for
the libglib-2.0-utils package in which it ends up. This of course broke
do_rootfs when the package was included in the rootfs and had been
restored from sstate from another machine, as happened on the Yocto
Project autobuilder.
We were already trying to sed this script apparently only for the
shebang (since it appears that there are no other paths in the script)
so let's just sed the shebang properly; it also seems sensible to do
this for native as well instead of explicitly trying to exclude that
case.

zlib-native is getting rebuilt.
pigz-native has some special handling to ensure its not used until the
system is ready. This is through a class and installing into a subdir of
PATH which only gets added in when we believe its available. We use
pigz-native in the image generation code and its in DEPENDS.
DEPENDS are guaranteed available for do_configure. do_populate_lic can
run before do_configure so the DEPENDS isn't met and I think this is our
corner case.I suspect ways of fixing this are to either:
a) force do_populate_lic after do_configure everywhere
b) statically link pigz-native
c) add in an explicit dependency to gzipnative.bbclass forcing
do_populate_lic after do_configure. If do_unpack handled a tar file in
an image, it would also be at risk of course.
Looking at each, a) is overkill and our dependency tree is nasty enough
already. b) sounds nice but is also risky since what happens if the gzip
binary is half copied when we run it. Our hardlink copying should deal
with that but I'm still nervous. This leaves us with c) so we could do:

My attempts to create a simpler test case (using templates), in order to

So, my guess is that this problem is certainly memory related but the
cause might be hidden in any of the following: qemu versatile hw model,
in the kernel or, highly unlikely but not impossible, the toolchain
itself. The reason I don't really think the cause is in the toolchain is
the fact that the compilation completes just fine for 128MB on qemuarm but

Since this issue might need lots of time to have a proper fix, I'll revert back

qemurunner: disable grabs in automated testing
Use the new QEMU_DONT_GRAB environment variable to disable grabs,
finally/hopefully solving the random hangs that the autobuilder has been hitting
for a while.

qemu: add option to disable X grabs
When the mouse pointer enters the qemu window it takes a pointer grab. This
doesn't sound too dangerous at first but it turns out that SDL will infinitely
busy-loop if it can't get the grab (e.g. if the screen is locked) and the
average autobuilder setup's X server will have locked the screen a few minutes
after boot.
The result is that on many autobuilders apparently random qemu instances (the
top-most one under the pointer) will hang during boot.
To resolve this add an option (via an environment variable) to never attempt a
grab. The default behaviour remains to grab so that everyone else doesn't see
any change.

u-boot-fw-utils: Skip package if UBOOT_MACHINE is unset
The UBOOT_MACHINE variable needs to be set so the firmware utils can
know about some configuration settings which are board dependent. This
patch ensures the package is skipped in case UBOOT_MACHINE is unset
thus avoid its build in 'bitbake world' builds for incompatible
machines.
The change to use the expansion cache in VariableParse was incorrect as
it was adding in references it shouldn't have been. This patch corrects
the codepaths and ensures the references are correct.
The cache version is bumped since the previous bug could have leave
to invalid checksum calculations and a clean cache is therefore desireable.
The impact of the bug was that sstate was not getting reused when it should
and some tasks were also being rerun when they should not have been.

bitbake: usermanual.xml: Two new sections added to BitBake "Description"
1. Added a new section "Appending and Prepending (override style
syntax)". This section shows how the append and prepend operators
work using the override style syntax.
2. Added a new section "Removing (override style syntax)". This
section describes the new "_remove" operator.
