(hdddir and staging_data_dir). As more use-cases are added, it becomes rather obvious that such a scheme doens't scale, and additionally causes confusion for plugin writers. This removes those special cases and states explicitly in the help text that plugins are responsible for locating their own boot artifacts.

The first iterations of wic very shortsightedly catered to two
specific use-cases and added special-purpose params for those cases so
that they could be directly given their corresponding boot artifacts.
(hdddir and staging_data_dir).

As more use-cases are added, it becomes rather obvious that such a
scheme doens't scale, and additionally causes confusion for plugin
writers.

This removes those special cases and states explicitly in the help
text that plugins are responsible for locating their own boot
artifacts.

Revert "wic: set bootimg_dir when using image-name artifacts" 2014-11-26T17:01:43+00:00 Tom Zanussi tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com 2014-11-26T16:22:07+00:00 36c93423ee272c4d4aafeb50f83734fd4bb3bb29 This reverts commit 7ce1dc13f91df70e8a2f420e7c3eba51cbc4bd48. This patch broke the assumption that a non-null boot_dir means a user-assigned (-b command-line param) value. Reverting doesn't break anything, since the case it was added for doesn't use the boot_dir for anything except debugging anyhow.
