oelint.vars.dependsappend

severity: error

Example

In my-recipe_1.0.bb

inherit something
DEPENDS = "bar"

Why is this bad?

The inherit (or include or require) statement will pull in code that might set DEPENDS as well. In the end those setting would be overwritten if DEPENDS is set after that.

Ways to fix it

Move DEPENDS before any inherit or include or require statement

DEPENDS = "bar"
inherit something

or use

inherit something
DEPENDS += "bar"
