Bitbake recipe for prebuilt binaries

Bitbake recipe for prebuilt binaries

Hi,


I'm building a custom layer for my board and I would like to include some
pre-built binaries in my final image.

The package is built outside the yocto build and is available as a binary
tarball from an http/ftp location.


Can someone please point to me a bit-bake recipe that handles such a case?


Regards, PJ

This is basically a matter of downloading the tarballs by setting SRC_URI,
unpacking them, and putting the files in the right places.
 bin_package.bbclass will help with this.
