This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for that.One question is that is there a way to make package that would contain only dpg-pkgs and src-pkgs? Ie. it'd be like 'debug-addition' for SDK? I know how to install those things to target, but how to get them to a package (or in separate directory) to host. -Teemu Keskinarkaus -- _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
