<para>
Defines how BitBake handles situations where an append
file (<filename>.bbappend</filename>) has no
corresponding recipe file (<filename>.bb</filename>).
This condition often occurs when layers get out of sync
(e.g. <filename>oe-core</filename> bumps a
recipe version and the old recipe no longer exists and the
other layer has not been updated to the new version
of the recipe yet).
</para>
<para>
The default fatal behavior is safest because it is
the sane reaction given something is out of sync.
It is important to realize when your changes are no longer
being applied.
</para>
<para>
You can change the default behavior by setting this
variable to "1" in the <filename>local.conf</filename>
file in the
<ulink url='&YOCTO_DOCS_DEV_URL;#build-directory'>Build Directory</ulink>
as follows:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
BB_DANGLINGAPPENDS_WARNONLY = "1"
