Well, what is the rationale for setting LAYER_CONF_VERSION=6 in
meta-yocto/conf/distro/poky.conf, then?

If meta layer specific values of LAYER_CONF_VERSION are allowed, the
sanity checker needs a better way to deal with these; alternatively,
above setting in meta-yocto/conf/distro/poky.conf is wrong.  So either
of these should be fixed.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
