As a way of making it easier to generate and make
these IPK configuration files available on your
- target, the <filename>meta-oe</filename> layer
- provides a recipe called
- <filename>distro-feed-configs</filename>, which
- provides a package by the same name.
- When you include this package into your image, it will
- automatically generate and include a set of
- <filename>*.conf</filename> files in the image's
- <filename>/etc/opkg</filename> directory that will
- provide your target's <filename>opkg</filename>
- tool with any and all package databases your build will
- generate.
- The only catch is that this recipe cannot possibly
- imagine your server's DNS name/IP address.
- Consequently, somewhere in your configuration you need
- to set a variable called
- <filename>DISTRO_FEED_URI</filename> to point
+ target, simply define
+ <filename>FEED_DEPLOYDIR_BASE_URI</filename> to point
to your server and the location within the
- document-root that contains the databases.
- For example: if you are serving your packages over HTTP,
- your server's IP address is 192.168.7.1, and your
- databases are located in a directory called
+ document-root which contains the databases.
+ For example: if you are serving your packages over
+ HTTP, your server's IP address is 192.168.7.1, and
+ your databases are located in a directory called
<filename>BOARD-dir</filename> underneath your HTTP
server's document-root, you need to set
- <filename>DISTRO_FEED_URI</filename> to
- <filename>http://192.168.7.1/BOARD-dir</filename>.
+ <filename>FEED_DEPLOYDIR_BASE_URI</filename> to
+ <filename>http://192.168.7.1/BOARD-dir</filename> and
+ a set of configuration files will be generated for you
+ in your target to work with this feed.

[YOCTO #5408] The reference manual should only refer to functionality which is available in oe-core. Currently, this passage requires the user to add a package from, and use facilities of, meta-oe. This fix describes how to use facilities in oe-core to the same end.
