From 9a8d49d647f14ff40953a00959564208f498c8f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Eggleton Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 18:13:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] image.bbclass, kernel.bbclass: create warning file about deleting deploydir files New users sometimes delete files in tmp/deploy/images assuming they will be re-created just by re-running the build, and then are confused when this doesn't work. To discourage people from doing this, create a file called README_-_DO_NOT_DELETE_FILES_IN_THIS_DIRECTORY.txt in tmp/deploy/images containing an explanation of what needs to be done to re-create files there. Fixes [YOCTO #1315] and [YOCTO #1346].
