I have a weird requirement of installing a package into a rellocated place in my Yocto image without changing the paths inside package.
Trying to explain, I can have files in my package like:
/usr/bin/my-app
/usr/share/my-app/files
And customer wants them installed into:
/customer/prefix/usr/bin/my-app
/customer/prefix/usr/share/my-app/files
Again, I cannot change the place where files are packed. This needs to be done during installation time only.
If I am installing package manually it is as easy as telling my package manager (opkg) to use a different root:
opkg --offline-root /customer/prefix my-app.ipk
But what is the best approach to have it integrated/automated into my image build?
NOTE: The relocation is to take place only for my-app. All other stuff must stay unaffected.
Thanks!
