2009-03-24distutils-base.bbclass: Move common functionality to ↵Khem Raj1
distutils-common-base.bbclass Create a new class distutils-common-base.bbclass which holds the common parts that can be used in native and target packages which need to use distutils funtionality. rpm, libxml2, zope are currently using them and needed to use distutils-native-base for native recipes. rpm and libxml need to defer the processing of certain configure parameters which we evaluate using python. So we need to have python-native built before we can process them. Hence we can not use EXTRA_OECONF which is a python variable and gets expanded during parsing recipes and ofcourse we have not yet built python-native. We pass these extra options as a separate shell variable to do_configure which we evaluate when that task is executing.
