As I am playing with several different Yocto/OE projects, I thought it would be nice to set up a global downloads directory.
Also, being a somewhat forgetful sort, I thought it would be nice if I could set DL_DIR in my .bashrc and not have to remember to edit conf/local.conf each time I follow the directions from a third party site to set up their Yocto based distribution. Can I do this? If so, how? Do I add DL_DIR to BB_ENV_WHITELIST? Do I add it to BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE? But I note that poky/scripts/oe-buildenv-internal arbitrarily blasts its own values into BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE, so setting BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE in my .bashrc won't work. Perhaps I am misunderstanding the concept of the whitelist. Perhaps I should just ask for some help. Help. Can I maintain a single global download directory specified solely through environment variables? If so, how? Thanks. --wpd -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
