Deby - Reproducible and Maintainable Embedded Linux Environment with Poky
summary
Deby combines Poky/Yocto (updated to Yocto 2.2) with Debian source to produce a Debian-like embedded distro that builds images, SDKs and QEMU-runable rootfs using Debian packages; supported kernels include Linux 4.4 LTS and 4.1 LTS. Reproducibility comes from a git-tag based rebuild that checks out layer and source tags to recreate images years later. Optional dpkg/apt support lets devices install or upgrade binary packages without rebuilding images. Meta-debian covers roughly 300–400 recipes and emits per-package summary metadata for compliance.
