The text starts with "Here's an example that doesn't take the easy way out ..." It would seem appropriate to provide also the content of the ~/test.wks file referred by the example, as it is not a canned one. 52504 1 eduard.bartosh 2015-07-21 10:15:41 +0000 I'm going to change help to this: Here's an example that doesn't take the easy way out and manually specifies each build artifact, along with a non-canned .wks file, and also uses the -o option to have wic create the output somewhere other than the default /var/tmp/wic: $ wic create ./test.wks -o ./out -r tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/core-image-minimal/1.0-r0/rootfs -b tmp/sysroots/qemux86-64/usr/share -k tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64 -n tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux -o Creating image(s)...
