Hey everyone,

I ran into an interesting problem today that I need some help with. I'm not 
sure if this is a bitbake issue or an oe-core one so I thought I'd try here 
first. We have our own layer that overlays on top of oe-core, meta-oe, and 
meta-angstrom. Our layer has a bunch of recipes that pull projects from our 
local SVN, including a recipe for u-boot. We have a build configuration file 
that has lines like the following:

SRCREV_pn-u-boot = "563"

We pull in this conf at build time using bitbake's -R argument. Just recently 
we switched u-boot's SRCREV from ${AUTOREV} to an actual revision number and 
bitbake started choking trying to parse recipes. It looks like it chokes while 
trying to parse oe-core's u-boot git recipe because the SRCREV is meant for 
SVN, not GIT (even though our PREFERRED_VERSION is set up only to build our 
u-boot). Is there a way to override this SRCREV variable only when parsing 
recipes in our layer? I know I can do it directly in the recipe, but that loses 
us the advantages of having all of the SRCREVs in one file (which makes 
specific full rebuilds very easy).

Thanks,
