I would suggest that you teach the 3rd party to set up a Yocto build

in that setup (just pull from the layer repos and rerun bitbake as
instructed).

The 3rd party is using only The Yocto SDK (not the eSDK), they want to test pre-release for one or two libs which are not included in the machine conf yet.

If I provide a pre-build sstate-cache, which command in the SDK can be used to get the updates?

Hi,

I am compiling new version of shared-libs are yocto recipes and plan to ship these libraries to 3rd party without provide a complete SDK, can I only ship the ibxxxx-dev.ipk and install to the already shipped SDK are incremental update.

From time to time I can provide a full update for the SDK, but I would like to avoid frequent update.

what is the best practice to provide partial update without using devtool? is this possible?

Also, can I uninstall/replace these libs which not official released from the installed SDK path?

show I use rpm instead of ipk?
