In line with python2 add distutils and setuptools
classes for handing python3
Use python-distribute instead of python-setuptools in setuptools bbclass
Remove --single-version-externally-managed since its setuptools
specific and we dont use it anymore
Do build_ext as separate step during compile
Add DISTUTILS_BUILD_EXT_ARGS for modules to pass flags to build_ext step
in setup.py
Add build_ext as sepate step during compile and add
the cross sysrooted library and headers since we are cross
compiling
Use ${PYTHON_PN} in place of hardcoding python name
Remove the /etc/share if its empty
Since OE-Core times we now have machine specific sysroots
for targets unlike before when we used arch specific sysroots
so reflect that here
Use MACHINE for sysroot when not building for build host
Python's machinery replaces directories in sysroot path to match OE's
staging area sysroots. Earlier we use to have HOST_SYS represent sysroot
always but now we use MACHINE to represent target sysroots but HOST_SYS
to represent host sysroot. This patch caters to that difference

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "nodistro") and contains only emulated machine support.
For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Where to Send Patches
As Poky is an integration repository, patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams.
bitbake: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
meta-yocto: poky@yoctoproject.org
Most everything else should be sent to the OpenEmbedded Core mailing list. If in doubt, check the oe-core git repository for the content you intend to modify. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current oe-core git repository. openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
Note: The scripts directory should be treated with extra care as it is a mix of oe-core and poky-specific files.
