This Application Note (AN) describes a way to apply the approach illustrated here to a Yocto distribution that makes use of Debian packetization. In other words, a local archive of Yocto-generated, prebuilt <code>.deb</code> packages is used in combination with the well known <code>apt-get</code> utility.
=== apt-get ===
The following instructions detail how to use apt-get for installing packages with Yocto repositories created by DAVE's build system for DESK-MX8M-L.
====Configuring <code>apt</code> for SBC-ORCA====
Edit the file <code>/etc/apt/apt.conf</code> like this:
<pre>
</pre>
====Configuring <code>apt</code> for SBCX-Mito8MMini====
Edit the file <code>/etc/apt/apt.conf</code> like this:
<pre>
</pre>
=== Installing packages on target ===
We assume that network interface has been already configured for Internet access. In any case, a simple network configuration can be done according to the [[DESK-MX8M-L/Deployment/How_to_configure_the_network_interfaces#Static_IP_address | How to configure the network interfaces]] wiki page.
</pre>
=== Other useful apt commands ===
==== List of configured software repositories ====
As shown before, the target is configured for accessing the Yocto repositories as listed in the <code>/etc/apt/sources.list.d</code> apt configuration directory:
</pre>
==== Search for packages ====
To search for an available package into the current configured channels use <code>apt-cache search</code>
</pre>
==== List of installed packages ====
User can see the list of installed packages with <code>dpkg --get-selections | sed 's:install$::'</code> (sed removes the ''install'' string from the output list)
