meta-oe depends on meta-python, for mongodb recipe, since
5cf9a144ad16 (mongodb: Upgrade to 4.0.1 release)

Trying to run the yocto-check-layer script fails with:

DEPENDS on or otherwise requires it). Close matches:

ERROR: Required build target 'meta-world-pkgdata' has no buildable

The dependency was always there, but I wonder if there is a better
place for mongodb than meta-oe

Can we please revert this? Making meta-oe depend on meta-python 
is not the right thing to do. Either move mongodb to another layer 
that already depends on meta-python or where it is fine to do so, 
or move python-cheetah to meta-oe. The latter seems like the easier 
choice.

I am fine with dropping mongodb from meta-oe and revert this patch
and the problem I see is that now meta-oe depends on meta-python
and meta-python depends on meta-oe, which is not good. Although
having meta-python as a dependency for meta-oe is fine or vice-versa
but no loops.

I think we have to revert it for now. Its breaking bitbake add-layers
due to circular dependency.

Yes, please revert.

Having circular dependency between meta-oe and meta-python is worse than:

cp -ra meta-python/* meta-oe/ && rmdir meta-python

that's why was such patch rejected few times already, e.g. in
https://www.mail-archive.com/openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org/msg61053.html

before it was protobuf, now mongodb

Is it just python-typing and python-cheetah meta-oe (mongodb) needs from
meta-python?

Why not move these 2 to meta-oe/recipes-devtools/python/ to make
yocto-check-layer script happy for next 3 months before someone sends
another patch like this.

Or we should gave up and copy all layers to oe-core repository and call it
oe-classic-ng :).

BTW: Yes I understand that the issue this patch was trying to fix was valid
and yocto-check-layer is useful in some cases (e.g. this issue isn't seen
by many people because almost everybody needs something from meta-python as
well, so it's almost always included and inter-layer dependency like this
can easily slip-in unnoticed. But if we start making dependencies between
layers willy-nilly, then we will just end-up with one huge pile of recipes
disadvantageously separated in multiple layers/repositories, but without
any separation.

Regards,
