[PATCH] local.conf.sample: add PATH to SSTATE_MIRRORS comments

[PATCH] local.conf.sample: add PATH to SSTATE_MIRRORS comments

[Paul Eggleton]

The shared state cache as pointed to by SSTATE_DIR by default now has
two-character subdirectories to prevent there being an issue with too
many files in the same directory; also, native sstate packages will go
into a subdirectory named using the distro ID string. If you copy the
newly structured sstate cache to a mirror location (either local or
remote) and then point to it in SSTATE_MIRRORS, you need to append
"PATH" to the end of the mirror URL so that the path used by bitbake
before the mirror substitution is appended to the path used to access
the mirror.

I think this is really a Poky File, so should go to the 
poky@yoctoproject.org!

Sau!

There is a version of the file in both repositories, I sent a patch for each 
one.

For me this file is part of OE-Core so list is proper. If OE-Core has
some Poky files then maybe consider moving them to separate layer?

Look at OE-Core from perspective of external developers. They change
files and then send patches here. Would you say them "go to other ML
with it" just because of history relations when they did proper thing?

For me, that's also correct.

If a file exists in oe-core, it's an oe-core file and patches goes here.

I don't think anyone's actually disputing that. OE-Core patches always go to 
the OE-Core list, as happened in this case.

Paul
