Hi,

I just tried to install the imx6 vpu firmware.
I needed to do:
IMAGE_INSTALL += "firmware-imx-vpu-imx6q"

firmware-imx-vpu or firmware-imx is not working.
.. that way my image is not only fsl-specific (which it already is due to fsl-
codec) but also chip specific.

Not sure I get this right, but the fsl-codecs are useless without the 
firmware, right?
If so: maybe the fsl-codecs/gst-fsl-plugin should have a RDEPENDS on firmware-
imx-vpu-<machine>?

Which image are you using? core-image-base and above ought to have the
right set of firmware out of box.

Our own using 'inherit core-image'
So it's similar to (/more then) 'core-image-base'

I colleague found that adding packagegroup-base adds the firmware
 ... is that the right way of doing it?

Yes; this is the generic way of adding it. However it is automatically
done by every image inheriting core-image. So you must be doing:

IMAGE_INSTALL = "... "

And this is wrong, in this specific case. Please change it to:

CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL += " ...  "

Ok, but then their is a bug :)
Our image does(!) 'inherit core-image' but the firmware does not get deployed.

You must be overriding something, read bellow.
