oelint.vars.bbvars

severity: warning

Example

In my-recipe_1.0.bb

BBDEBUG = "1"

Why is this bad?

A set of variable from bitbake should only be set in local.conf or distro.conf, as they need to be set globally. They do not have the desired effect when set in a recipe.

Ways to fix it

Remove the usage of the following variable from recipes
