[yocto] Doubt about layer priority and package version preference

[saurav]

Hi,

I am having some doubt about the yocto 1.3.  can anyone clarify the same?

Is there any change done in yocto 1.3 about the layer priority and package
version preference? I observed that 

In yocto1.2: Package version takes preference over the layer priority.  Ex.
If 1.0 version of package-1 is present in layer1 with higher priority then
layer2 which contains 2.0 version of package-1, then while building 2.0
version of package-1 is considered though layer priority is otherwise but

In Yocto1.3: Layer priority takes preference over package version. 

Regards,
Saurav
