proper (vs weird) way to define proprietary licenses
The typical approach for recipes which build proprietary code is to set LICENSE to "CLOSED" (and not define LIC_FILES_CHKSUM). I'm not sure what the advantages are of creating a license text for a pro

really strange usage of FILESPATH and FILESEXTRAPATHS
It's unconventional, but I guess it will work OK (i.e. it won't have any surprising or negative side effects). It's better than (for example) one recipe fetching source from the build directory of ano

the weirdness of bbappend'ing to stock OE images
A clearly internal proprietary image would remove the reference to oe-core from the image name, so "acme-image-minimal.bb" rather than "acme-core-image-minimal.bb". I don't know. Adding to the core im

curious about weirdness in some FILES_${PN} settings
Nothing clever going on, it's just a bug. In general, using /etc instead of ${sysconfdir} etc will appear to work fine until you add BBCLASSEXTEND and try to build <recipe>-native, at which point thin

diff between "bitbake meta-toolchain" and "bitbake -c populate_sdk <target>?
It's an example of a "pure" toolchain recipe. You are free to modify it and add additional packages or use it as a reference to create your own toolchain recipe. Here's another example of a pure toolc

[PATCH 2/2] core-image-sato: qemuarmv5 doesn't work with >256M RAM
It's not related to other machines. There are other images which set QB_MEM to "-m 512" based on the opengl distro feature. If qemu-system-arm versatilepb can only support 256MB then these images need

[PATCH 2/2] core-image-sato: qemuarmv5 doesn't work with >256M RAM
Grepping for QB_MEM suggests there are other images which need the same fix. Maybe good to fix all of them at once rather than one at a time.

[PATCH 1/2] qemuarmv5: add softfp
Wouldn't "sidestep" be a more accurate description then "resolve" ? Either way I'm not sure that changing qemuarmv5 just to workaround one broken package is the right approach. Doesn't it mean OE will

[PATCH] resolvconf: add missing dependencies to RDEPENDS
Busybox provides flock, but it doesn't support the -w option (wait with timeout). Either the util-linux flock is required or resolvconf needs to be patched to drop the -w option.

[PATCH] resolvconf: add missing dependencies to RDEPENDS
util-linux-flock has its own package. Patching resolvconf to use readlink -f (instead of readlink -m) should be sufficient to allow it to work with busybox readlink.
