Fixes [YOCTO 1102]
Path variables are typically : delimited. White space is allowed in paths, so
is not a good choice for separating paths. Currently utils.bbclass performs the
following:
extrapaths = (bb.data.getVar("FILESEXTRAPATHS", d, True) or "").split()
This splits FILESEXTRAPATHS on whitespace. It later splits overrides on : and
reassembles them all together as : delimited.
There is only one user of FILESEXTRAPATHS in oe-core (qt4-tools-native, which
uses : anyway) and none in oe.
Change the split() in utils.bbclass to split on : instead of whitespace. When
splitting on a defined string (":") we must be careful to handle the empty
string case which returns [''] instead of [].
Tested building qt4-tools-native and core-image-minimal for surgarbay from
meta-intel with a couple extra layers with FILESEXTRAPATHS modifications added.

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/community/documentation
