Hi Alok.
Hopefully I'm not too late on this issue. I'm just back from vacation...
I also like Dave's idea of tagging boot_archive files in packages. Most of
the time, as you say, users won't need to make additions to this list.
If additional files are desired, I would think the list of additions would be
small enough to just keep it in the manifest itself. This removes the
complication of having a separate file for it.
Correct.
Would there be a need to replace some "factory" files taken from packages,
with custom versions, for debugging or development purposes? If so, how
would this work? Start with the package versions, and then overlay the
custom files?
You could do what Jean said with a custom transfer checkpoint
or you'd update your pkg repo to have the versions of the binaries
you desire.
Also, would there ever be a need to not-include a file which is tagged in a
package, for debugging or development purposes? Would this be considered too
corner-case?
This could also be easily done as Jean points out.
