Hi!
In my update to latest warrior, I came across 
4b393a21ffcf9fe00577b4a46c38b5db89b39e9d, which adds rng-tools as 
RRECOMMENDS. So far, so good. But for some reason, rng-tools fails 
miserably on my platform, why I cannot say, because it blocks the 
watchdog daemon, so before I can get logged in, a reboot happens.
So I go and read the manual, and come across PACKAGE_EXCLUDE, 
NO_RECOMMENDATIONS and BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS. I tried all of them from 
local.conf:
PACKAGE_EXCLUDE = "rng-tools"
NO_RECOMMENDATIONS =  "1"
BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS = "rng-tools"
and even with the pn-target_image/||/ (and yes, I replaced target_image 
with my image name). But nothings seems to help. What am I missing?
Regards,
     Matthias
