My recollection and quick check is that -a should be copying the xattrs
from our source to the umoci layer structure.
The bbclass operates on the fully assembled image, so anything you've
put in place for ACLs, etc, should be preserved.
Rather than dropping -a, I'd extend it with --preserve=xattr if we are
missing
something in a binutils -> filesystem -> or something else combination.
If you had specific examples, I could comment further.
