If you want to force a particular version of a recipe,
you can use "forcevariable" as follows:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto_forcevariable = "3.4%"
</literallayout>
Another method is to use a machine override:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-yocto_qemux86 = "3.4%"
</literallayout>
