[yocto] Install a pre-build ipkg package at build time

[João Gonçalves]

Thanks, I didn't know that I could point SRC_URI to a ipk just like a
regullar tar file.
I did that, pointed to our ipk server and it could download the ipk file.
However during the do_rootfs task i got the following error:

ERROR: kelvin-base-image-2.8b4-r0 do_rootfs: Error executing a python
function in exec_python_func() autogenerated:

The stack trace of python calls that resulted in this exception/failure was:

I used "CLOSED" as license, i also tried put a MIT license the on "file:.."
of the recipe. I got the same error. Maybe it is because I do not have a
license file inside the ipk package, I'll test put a license file in a
package and try to install it.
I'am using a set of layers provided by our board vendor and they are using
rocko version.

I could "hide" the problem by putting  the whole body of
the license_create_manifest function of the license.bbclass inside a
try-except block.
It worked but that's not a solution.
