<para>Allows extra packages to be added to the generated images.
You set this variable in the <filename>local.conf</filename>
configuration file.
Note that some image features are also added using the
<link linkend='var-IMAGE_FEATURES'>IMAGE_FEATURES</link>
variable generally configured in image recipes.
You can use the EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES variable to add more features
in addition to those.
Here are some exmaples of features you can add:</para>
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
"dbg-pkgs" - Adds -dbg packages for all installed packages
including symbol information for debugging and
profiling.
"dev-pkgs" - Adds -dev packages for all installed packages.
This is useful if you want to develop against
the libraries in the image.
"tools-sdk" - Adds development tools such as gcc, make,
pkgconfig and so forth.
"tools-debug" - Adds debugging tools such as gdb and
strace.
"tools-profile" - Adds profiling tools such as oprofile,
exmap, lttng and valgrind (x86 only).
"tools-testapps" - Adds useful testing tools such as ts_print,
aplay, arecord and so forth.
"debug-tweaks" - Makes an image suitable for development.
For example, ssh root access has a blank
password. There are other application
targets too, see meta/classes/poky-image.bbclass
and meta/packages/tasks/task-poky.bb
for more details.
