[SailfishDevel] Installing packages to the SDK and Emulator via the rpm/yaml file

[Luciano Montanaro]

Thank you very much,

that is a good introduction to packaging, and it covers all the
stumbling blocks I have encountered with regards to packaging/
deploying/building.
One thing that I have discovered is that my QtCreator cannot connect
to the emulator if there network interface has no address: Since I
often try to build when traveling/on a train, that was a problem. The
workaround I discovered is to assign a network address to a network
device like: ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1. Then building works as
expected.

The rest I think is covered... But I still get bitten from time to
time by QtCreator "updating" my yaml file on its own, which requires
cleaning it up.

I have a new problem now, but it is not related to building, and I
will post it separately.

Luciano
