They can, but you should describe possible use cases too.

Hi,

Why would this be needed? The reason should be in the commit message.

It is likely better to remove wpa-supplicant from the dependency which
needs it on -native.

We are using native builds to run some tests on the software we develop in Yocto
and some of this software uses wpa-supplicant library.

Is this an acceptable use case?

You can easily enable native supplicant via a .bbappend in your own layer.

Native builds are not meant for running tests on the software that
goes into a product, they're meant only for building tools that are
needed for target builds.

Can we see the tests?

Thank you for the information, in this case we should resort to using the bbappend,

because we don't have any use case of wpa-supplicant as a tool needed for target builds.
