[Buildroot-users] how to force-check hash for extra file?

[David Picard]

Actually, I just found how to make it work, by tweaking the URL:

<PKG>_EXTRA_DOWNLOADS = 
https://gitlab-ci-token:MyDeployToken@gitlab.in2p3.fr/api/v4/projects/MyProjectID/packages/generic/MyGitlabPackageName/$(<PKG>_FIRMWARE_VERSION)/socfpga.rbf

Buildroot does check the hash of socfpga.rbf.

Now, I just need to think over the unique file name.

Thanks,
David
