There is a need for a default provider for bluez
now that bluez5 recipe is also present.
After the introduction of bluez5 recipe,
the following warnings are displayed:
"NOTE: multiple providers are available for runtime libasound-module-bluez (bluez4, bluez5)
NOTE: consider defining a PREFERRED_PROVIDER entry to match libasound-module-bluez"
Upon debug, bitbake shows:
DEBUG: checking PREFERRED_PROVIDER_bluez4 (value None) against ['bluez4', 'bluez5']
DEBUG: checking PREFERRED_PROVIDER_bluez4-4.101 (value None) against ['bluez4', 'bluez5']
DEBUG: checking PREFERRED_PROVIDER_bluez4-4.101-r5 (value None) against ['bluez4', 'bluez5']
DEBUG: checking PREFERRED_PROVIDER_bluez5 (value None) against ['bluez4', 'bluez5']
DEBUG: checking PREFERRED_PROVIDER_bluez5-5.7 (value None) against ['bluez4', 'bluez5']
DEBUG: checking PREFERRED_PROVIDER_bluez5-5.7-r0 (value None) against ['bluez4', 'bluez5']
Bitbake is faced with the question "what should provide libasound-module-bluez?"
which is a runtime name. It needs to try and find a PREFERRED_PROVIDER entry
which matches this but those use *build time* naming. So it converts "libasound-module-bluez"
into the canonical ${PN} of bluez4 and bluez5 and then tries to look those up.
What it actually should do is go one step further of mapping bluez4/bluez5
into the virtual/bluez but that does not happen.

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.
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.
