Waiting for your patch to be accepted in OE-core before merging in
master-next.
Cheers

Apparently, your code hasn't been merged yet, and following the
discussions on OE-core, I'm not sure what to expect.
Would you mind sending me the patch again when something happens?
Thanks for everything

Based on the comments that the patch received I will not push for
it to be integrated. We will use a local solution instead.
