Hi Vedang,

If you can make your email client use ">" for quoting that would be great (so it's possible to see who's talking even in plain text).

I think there's some confusion here about PACKAGECONFIG and image features: PACKAGECONFIG is completely recipe specific -- it only controls this recipe. There's no need to use a naming prefix as these variables are only visible inside the recipe. Changing them from outside (like local.conf) is possible but requires a syntax like

    PACKAGECONFIG_pn-libxslt = "python crypto" 

so there's no need to fear namespace mixups.

Second, this line: 

    PACKAGECONFIG ??= "python libxslt-debug libxslt-mem-debug libxslt-crypto"

sets he default value of libxslt PACKAGECONFIG. Meaning that these options will be given to configure: 

    "--with-python=<ver> --with-debug --with-mem-debug --with-crypto"

Currently the EXTRA_OECONF line explicitly disables all these so this looks like a change in defaults.

If in doubt (or I didn't make sense) you should run "bitbake -cconfigure libxslt" with both versions and check what ends up in the configure options in $WORKDIR/temp/log.do_configure.

Cheers,
