[YOCTO #1024] Currently package-index.bb only supports ipk. This commit adds the support for rpm and deb, too. ------------------------------ How to generate and use repos: 1) run "bitbake package-index" after building some target, e.g., core-image-sato-sdk; 2) export ${DEPLOY_DIR_RPM}, ${DEPLOY_DIR_IPK} and ${DEPLOY_DIR_DEB} by a webserver on the host, assuming the host IP is 192.168.7.1, at http://192.168.7.1/rpm http://192.168.7.1/ipk http://192.168.7.1/deb 3) inside the target, according to the packaging system (rpm, ipk or deb) used when we generate the target image, we can use different ways to manage packages: 3.1) RPM run "zypper addrepo http://192.168.7.1/rpm main; zypper refresh" to retrieve info about the repo; next, we can use "zypper install/remove" to manage packages. 3.2) IPK add the repo info into opkg config file, i.e., in /etc/opkg/arch.conf, we can add something like "src i586 http://192.168.7.1/ipk/i586", and next, we run "opkg update" to make opkg update the list of available packages. And later, we can use "opkg install/remove" to manage packages. 3.3) DEB Currently in target, some important config files, like /var/lib/dpkg/status and /etc/apt/sources.list, for deb/apt are missing. So we can't install/remove package in target at present.

Poky
====
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged
build system and development environment. It features support for building
customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images
featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports
cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a
standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports
is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added
in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as
BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information
e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a
reference manual which can be found at:
http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation
