Hi,

I am investigating Yocto for a build system here. Part of my requirements
for a build system is auditable/traceable builds that can be replicated long
into the future (our company has a 10 year warranty on our products, and we
build products for the multidecade term). Initial examination of Yocto shows
that it builds packages from a number of different domains online, which
will not meet our requirements - we'll have to store these packages to
ensure these packages exist in the correct version long into the future.  I
know we can manually edit the SRC_URI setting in .bb files, but the more
general problem of package archiving exists.

I am interested in any information or recommendations other users of the
Yocto system have on how they have solved this sort of design constraint.

Hi Paul

You can cache all the source tars as you mentioned and then
store them internally and use PREMIRROR facility which should
check premirrors before it hits src_uri so provided you cache
all the sources it should always get it from your internal
mirror

Check the archives - there was an extensive discussion of this last week
  '[yocto] tar ball vs. git development questions'
