I don't think there's any point in ignoring this now, and then doing something with it later. It should have a hwpack format bump so that users can be told that they need a newer l-m-c, otherwise when we first release Android hwpacks people will generate unbootable images.
So "old" l-i-t will bail out against new hwpacks again? If we could allow them to continue working, that would be nicer IMO
Right, but what would they do? That's my point.
If you really want to push Andoid in to v2 then we can write code to identify/specify image type, then defer Android/linux_image combination with a specific error message.
Using HWPACK's for Android is not a good idea. We want what we do to be accepted by the community. We should follow the communities conventions.
