Re: [epp-dev] Using p2.inf to optionally import Linux Tools features in

[Markus Knauer <mknauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Looks good to me... Doug, any objections? Feel free to trigger a new (juno.epp-repository-build) build in order to test this change as soon as possible.

What's the bug number related to this change?

Thanks,
Markus

If there are no objections or technical issues, I would like to apply the attached patch to the CPP package feature so that the Linux Tools features are optionally imported as opposed to included.  The features were included because some of them have filters so they cannot be imported by some of the supported CPP platform/OS combinations.  This wasn't a problem when Linux Tools had its own EPP package and restricted supported platforms to Linux x86 and x86_64.  The import statement does not support use of an "optional" flag so an include statement was used.

The change would have the benefit that those features imported this way should be able to be updated in the future.  Without this patch, those included features can only be updated by an update to the parent CPP package feature.

IMO, this meshes better with the other features that are required by the CPP package (such as CDT features) that can be updated.
