There was some odd behaviour if some task was run from setcene whilst there were existing valid stamps for a depepdency. For example, do_populate_sysroot might be installed at setscene time but if there were other tasks not installed from setscene such as do_populate_lic which depend on do_configure, the setsceneverify function would think that do_configure needed to be rerun and would hence void the do_populate_sysroot and force that to rerun too. The setsceneverify function needs to know which tasks are going to be rerun, not just what the overall task list is and what setscene functions have run. This patch adds that information and maintains backwards compatibility in a slightly ugly but effective way. The metadata needs updating to take advantage of this change.

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 = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
