1776 The "recrdeptask" flag is most commonly used in high-level
1777 recipes that need to wait for some task to finish "globally".
1778 For example, <filename>image.bbclass</filename> has the following:
1779 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
1780 do_rootfs[recrdeptask] += "do_packagedata"
1781 </literallayout>
1782 This statement says that the <filename>do_packagedata</filename>
1783 task of all recipes reachable (by way of dependencies) from the
1784 image recipe must run before the <filename>do_rootfs</filename>
1785 task can run.
