Re: SDK Container for app development is missing some applications

Thanks Jan, I've given that a go but it doesn't seem to have made a 
difference.

I now have e.g.
```
SDK_PREINSTALL += "cmake"
SDK_PREINSTALL += "cmake:${DISTRO_ARCH}"
```
for all the SDK libraries I'm specifying

When I use `bitbake -e`, `SDK_PREINSTALL=` includes e.g. `... cmake 
cmake:armhf ... libboost-all-dev libboost-all-dev:armhf ...`.
But when spinning that up into a container, cmake isn't installed at all 
and it still looks like only the host version of boost is in the container. 
It also needed me to bump the PR in the include file to recognise there 
were changes so perhaps that's a symptom of something not being picked up?

The kas file is pointing to `debug-image` which I understand as being the 
debug-image.bb file, which includes debug.inc where I'm adding these 
changes.

Don't suppose you have any other ideas?

Thanks
Antoine
