Re: [PATCH] core-image-minimal-initramfs: add libgcc into the initramfs image

[Zhixiong Chi <zhixiong.chi@windriver.com>]

It's not for dependency of the package in the initramfs image,

just for the multithread application while the customer use initramfs image.

Since we use PACKAGE_INSTALL to override the rootfs in the initramfs bb 
file,

so we couldn't use the IMAGE_INSTALL_append to add the package in the 
local.conf.

Did you think if it should be added into the image? :-)

I know the initramfs is just to bootup the system. If the customer want 
to support the

multithread app, they can use the other types of the image.

Thanks.
