Running "bitbake gconf-native -c cleansstate; bitbake core-image-sato:do_populate_sdk" results in a build where it fails to find gconf-native and fails to build it, merrily trying to build the SDK without gconf being present. The issue is the missing setscene tasks are effectively ignored as the later code in runqueue thinks that since other sstate tasks are present, these 'cover' the missing one. In reality we need to call BB_SETSCENE_DEPVALID to make that decision. To do that we need a "reduced" setscene dependency graph which we don't have in main task graph context. Since that was already done in setscene, we should just assume anything in the non-covered list needs to be built.

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.

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
