Re: [PATCH 1/3] rpm: add support for remote package feeds via PACKAGE_FEED_URIS variable

["Ibarra Lopez, Humberto" <humberto.ibarra.lopez@intel.com>]

Yeah, it does sound off but we could use it. We could put a mock value in the ip to the PACKAGE_FEED_URIS var to build this image and once it boths update that value with the real one. We would have to check that the mock value was correctly set before updating so we can test the var being correctly set; and then check that the feeds are updated correctly once a valid ip is there. I will look into this.

We could run a sed command inside the image after it boots but before triggering the tests to put the correct IP/port number into the file?

Not a perfect test but simple and probably good enough for this?
