When debugging issues or trying to add new features in wic it's useful to examine the intermediate files created by the tool such as images of the individual partitions. Previously these files were created in a subdirectory of IMGDEPLOYDIR and, deleted by wic itself and then the working subdirectory completely removed at the end of IMAGE_CMD_wic. Instead we should work in a staging directory named build-wic and leave behind intermediate files for analysis if necessary. This has the added benefit of allowing individual partition images to be preserved by adding commands to IMAGE_CMD_wic_append() in an image recipe if needed. This is useful where an update system requires exact sized and pre-formatted partition images for deployment.

QEMU Emulation Targets ====================== To simplify development, the build system supports building images to work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants: * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64) * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64) * PowerPC (qemuppc only) * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64) Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual. The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given in brackets.
