Can you please take a look at binman?
Again, I had explored using binman for this task. The one issue where I find the above flow better is that I can simply build my payload image(s) followed by 'make capsule' to generate the capsules for earlier generated images. In it's current form, I don't see an easy way to enforce this dependency in binman when I want to build the payload followed by generation of capsules. I did see the mention of encapsulating an entry within another dependent entry, but I think that makes the implementation more complex than it ought to be. I think it is much easier to use the make flow to generate the images followed by capsules, instead of tweaking the binman node to first generate the payload images, followed by enabling the capsule node to build the capsules. If there is an easy way of enforcing this dependency, please let me know. Thanks -sughosh
