I need information on how we suggest to use it? Here is an example sniplet to use autobuild's mirror PREMIRRORS_prepend = "\ ftp://.*/.* http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/ \n \ http://.*/.* file://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/ \n \ https://.*/.* file://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/sources/ \n" So is this a variable that goes in a configuration file somewhere? If so, what configuration file. I am trying to figure out the best place for this information. Thanks The solution for this bug is already in place. The QS currently contains a note describing how Poky searches for source code by default. The note points the reader to a FAQ entry in the Poky Reference Manual that provides lots of detail on how to beef up the search process. Included in the FAQ entry is a lot of discussion on PREMIRRORS_prepend. The fix is already in poky/master. Fixes in the manual. I put in a valid target and estimate. Also set the Documentation change field to "No". Scott |
