Hi,

I'm in the process of moving our image generation from ELBE to Isar - and 
of course
I'm running into unforseen situations ;-)

ELBE relies on apt-repositories where already build packages are stored, 
ready for
installation on the target, therefore we have all our custom stuff already 
build and
available as Debian packages and I surely do not want to rebuild these 
packages in
Isar.

So, I added an extra layer and appended a sources list file 
to DISTRO_APT_SOURCES,
pointing to our local apt-repository (aptly) and added one of our locally 
hosted
packages to IMAGE_INSTALL. This somewhat naive approach backfired 
immediatetly
when trying to build an image:

ERROR: Nothing PROVIDES 'XXXX' (but 
mc:qemuarm64-trixie:/home/isar/isar-image/isar/meta-isar/recipes-core/images/isar-image-base.bb 
DEPENDS on or otherwise requires it

where XXXX is the locally hosted package name.

This is probably expected behaviour, I assume. What would be the best way 
to tackle that?
Overwriting the part of the Isar-bootstrapping where the package lists are 
build?
Defining another list of packages to be installed after bootstrapping is 
complete?
I'd like to avoid adding recipies for every local package,

thanks in advance for every suggestion,
Uli
