[yocto] [meta-raspberrypi] userland

[Herve Jourdain]

Hi Khem,

Actually, in the case of raspberrypi, the implementation of gstreamer1.0-omx could depend on openmax provided by userland, instead of libomxil by default.
That's one example on the top of my head.
I don't personally use openvg, but I guess it might also be useful, although I have no first hand example for that one.

Best regards,

Herve

if they are implementation of generic components then sure. openvg and openmax might be one of them but if no one is depending on them why bother ?
