X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=013d632d46ef474086db46158c74f2ae158ae9ff;p=openembedded.git

oe.utils: add oe_run convenience function

This one is intended to be used from python snippets in variables.  It returns
the stdout of the subprocess and raises an exception if the exit code isn't 0.
