Currently we only run through the recidepends/recrdepends code once. This
means that we can miss some expansions of dependency trees where one
rec{r,i}depends tasks depends on another rec{r,i}depends task.
In reality we need to iterate over the data until we stop adding
dependencies.
In doing this we can't show quite so granular progress information since
we don't know how many times we'll need to do this.
This does slow down the runqueue prepare phase however some optimisations
are possible and can be handled in subsequent patches.
This fix means some missing dependencies, such as:
<image>:do_fetchall -> <image>:do_rootfs -> <pkgs>:do_package_write_X
-> <ca-certs>:do_package_write_X -> debianutils-native
(via PAKAGE_WRITE_DEPS)
are now found/added.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
