You can use BBMASK variable in your layer.conf file.

Ross,

Thanks, that  " IMAGE_INSTALL_append_intel-corei7-64 = "package_b" "  worked a treat.

If I want to exclude a recipe from a layer for qemu builds  - is there a similar method for that ?

Thanks,
Mark

It's not typical usage to combine += with _append, pick one or the other.

Using _append is generally more reliable if you're not sure how the
variable you're appending to was originally initialised, however with
_append you need to manually include a leading space character, ie:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " package_a"

Another alternative would be something like:

IMAGE_INSTALL_remove_qemuall = "package_b"
