[yocto] replace etc/network/interfaces with symbolic link

[Aurele Traynard]

Thank you for all answers, I looked

In fact I found another problem, even if I modify the original recipe I
can't get a modified rpm, or rootfs...
I commented lines concerning interfaces files but it seems that nothing is
modified in the rootfs and in the rpm...
if someone understands what I missed...

the bitbake file :
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/plain/meta/recipes-core/init-ifupdown/init-ifupdown_1.0.bb
and I commented out :
#install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/interfaces ${D}${sysconfdir}/network/interfaces
#CONFFILES_${PN} = "${sysconfdir}/network/interfaces"
