[yocto] rfkill cannot open control device

[Zoran Stojsavljevic]

Inside poky distro (.../poky/meta/recipes-connectivity):

[user at localhost recipes-connectivity]$ pwd
/home/user/YOCTO/oe_core_embedded/poky/meta/recipes-connectivity
[user at localhost recipes-connectivity]$ ls -al

[user at localhost recipes-connectivity]$

Or:

https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/plain/meta/recipes-connectivity/bluez5/

You should add it in .../conf/local.conf as:

IMAGE_INSTALL_append += "rfkill" (my best guess, easiest way).
