2016-03-24archiver.bbclass: Fix use of ARCHIVER_WORKDIR and ARCHIVER_OUTDIRMariano Lopez
Currently do_unpack_and_patch() and do_ar_configured() are using the ARCHIVER_OUTDIR as the ARCHIVER_WORKDIR, this lead to have duplicated files inside the tars when using the archiver class for patched and configured source.

2016-03-24archiver.bbclass: Don't expand python functions in dumpdataMariano Lopez

2016-03-24gconf: fix buildpaths QA issueHongxu Jia
The build paths come from debug mode, and GConf is effectively unmaintained these days anyway. So explicitly disable debug to fix build paths QA issue. The minimum still keeps Glib check and assert which can result in crashes if bad data is passed to the API.

2016-03-24python-pygobject: use Python 2 instead of Python 3Ross Burton
Ideally this would be an option but that means conditional inherits. For now Python 2 is clearly the default Python in oe-core so switch to Python 2 instead of 3. This stops python3 being pulled inadvertently into builds, and appearing in images that have ptest-pkgs installed (via dbus-test). Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@intel.com>
2016-03-24sanity.bbclass: check host tool dependencies on change in NATIVELSBSTRINGBill Randle
When a user upgrades their host distro, it may no longer have all the required tools installed, but this won't be caught by bitbake resulting in possible build errors. Rather than check for installed tools on every startup, use the NATIVELSBSTRING change as indicator to rescan for host tool dependencies. Store the NATIVELSBSTRING in the sanity_info file.

2016-03-23nativesdk-coreutils: a lot of warnings fixedDengke Du
When we create nativesdk-coreutils, a lot of warnings appear,it show many files can't find. Because in the coreutils recipe, it didn't contain the do_install for the nativesdk, so when the alternative system check the files in the following process, it can't find the files. So we should add the do_install for the nativesdk, change the function do_install_append_class-target() to do_install_append() in the file: meta/recipes-core/coreutils/coreutils_8.25.bb in this way, the alternative system can find the files, the warnings disappear.

When we add from a fetched URL we are supposed to turn the resulting source tree into a git repository (if it isn't already one).

updated SRC_URI to http as it seems more stable.

They need distinct zones since their post-1970 histories disagree. New zone Asia/Barnaul for Altai Krai and Altai Republic, Russia, which will switch from +06 to +07 on the same date and local time. Also, Asia/Sakhalin moves from +10 to +11 on 2016-03-27 at 02:00. (Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev for the heads-up, and to Matt Johnson and Stepan Golosunov for followup.) As a trial of a new system that needs less information to be made up, the new zones use numeric time zone abbreviations like "+04" instead of invented abbreviations like "ASTT". Haiti will not observe DST in 2016. (Thanks to Jean Antoine via Steffen Thorsen.) Palestine's spring-forward transition on 2016-03-26 is at 01:00, not 00:00. (Thanks to Hannah Kreitem.)
