Hi Teemu,

This is the line in BSP where the image file time is setup:
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-freescale/tree/conf/machine/include/imx-base.inc#n289

You may have some configuration on top of the BSP which prevents it to
create the wic image.

Could you, please, test the following line to try to see which
configuration you have on your side?

bitbake -e | grep  IMAGE_FSTYPES

Daiane
