A craving to be settled (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agreed

'be settled' is the definition.
(settled can mean agreed or decided)

'a craving' is the wordplay.
'craving' becomes 'greed' (greed is craving too much).
'a'+'greed'='AGREED'

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for agreed that I've seen before include "Assented, acquiesced" , "very well" , "acceptable" , "Mutually settled" , "Said yes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
