[yocto] Adding Python to an Image

[Gerard Bucas]

Hi Ross (or anyone else!)

How do YOU know this & how could ANYONE find out about the names of ALL the
modules available for adding in yocto?

In other words is there a searchable list somewhere of ALL "things" that can
be added to a yocto build?

I (& others!) would love to better understand how we can "learn" to find the
names of all the modules that can easily be added to yocto!?

THANKS!

Gerard

Ah, thanks. In this case, python is the RECIPE, which can (and in this 
case, does) produce man PACKAGES.

Thanks for the reminder! Chugging right along!
