Re: [PATCH] image.bbclass: set file timestamps inside the rootfs and initramfs image

Hey Balasubramanian,

you are making some fundamental mistakes here so that is why people
might not want to help you or would not know how to do so.

When you have a question for help please formulate it clearly and
give some context. You just want to install a debian package in your
image, use IMAGE_PREINSTALL.
You have to modify/rebuild that package ... check out the hello example
and use IMAGE_INSTALL.

So say you can just use the meta-package "bluetooth" you can have a
look at this part of the docs.
https://github.com/ilbers/isar/blob/master/doc/user_manual.md#create-a-custom-image-recipe

And consider giving this whole manual a read. It is not the best and
maybe not all clear when you read it first. But over time it should
make sense.

That said. Please avoid these mistakes:

- taking over a random discussion to talk about something totally
  different, rather open a new one
- send debug output as screenshots ... they are hard to read and cite
  (they all have the same name), and you leak stuff like the model of
  your cell phone, or that your firmware is "Music" ... send the
  relevant bits as text and say how you got there. Without your recipe
  or change it is really hard to put your errors into any context.
  the last one looks like you modified the image recipe of the cip
  layer and added bluez as IMAGE_INSTALL where it should have been
  IMAGE_PREINSTALL
- do not send html mails
- do not include CONFIDENTIALITY disclaimers, your mails are super
  public so that does not make any sense

regards,
Henning
