well you would start by using PACKAGE_CLASSES = " package_deb" in your local.conf that should generate you an image with dpkg as packaging backend IMAGE_FEATURES += "package-management" that will add online package management component to your image build your image and it should have knobs for hooking in feeds if you know how its done for apt bigger problems start here where the packages in that PPA may require different versions of package dependencies than what you get from yocto image and even worse they might use a different ABI etc. > > Thank in advance, > > > > Kind regards, > > > > Tim > > > _______________________________________________ > yocto mailing list > yocto@yoctoproject.org > https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto > _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
