[yocto] non-existent task do_package_write_ipk

[Donal Morrissey]

Hi Ross,
Thank you for your help. My build is using a layer which is generating a
file in a ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND command. I would like to modify this
file as part of the yocto build, but I'd prefer not to modify/fork this
layer as it is from a vender.

I'm creating my own layer, which will modify the file created in the vender
layer's ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND command. If I use pkg_postinst, then the
file will not have been created when pkg_postinst is called, because (as
far as i understand) the ROOTFS_POSTPROCESS_COMMAND commands will only be
executed after all packages have been installed on the root filesystem
image.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Regards,
Donal
