Hello Timo! Let me try explaining the system image config syntax for you.

I would like to use devel-proposed > version of 15.04 rootfs packages. Each image is built from a number of different tarballs that make up the image - for touch those are basically: ubuntu (the rootfs), device (device specifics), custom (per-channel customization additions, like additional clicks etc.) and version (information about the version and channel). Each channel config starts with the list of files it provides, so those need to be listed in a comma-separated list as you see above. Each file can also be device specific, for instance: device,arale would mean that there's a different device tarball for the arale device. Then, each of the files gets a separate line like 'file_device = '. Each line defines from where to fetch the selected tarball and how to notice that a new one is available. This is done by so called 'generators'. The remote-system-image generator fetches tarballs from a remote system-image server as per the given URL. The general format is: remote-system-image;<URL>;<REMOTE CHANNEL>;<TARBALL> The example config above also uses another generator, http, which can be used to fetch the selected tarballs from a specific URL. The monitor= argument is a special URL that will be watched by the server for changes - and whenever the file on the URL changes, system-image will know that there's a new tarball available it's supposed to fetch it from the base URL. So that's more or less it. I do not understand what you want to fetch though, as you mention you want devel-proposed version of 15.04 rootfs packages - which doesn't make much sense. devel-proposed is currently based on 16.04, it's rc-proposed that's 15.04. If you want to use one of those rootfs, you can use the remote-system-image generator and fetch the ubuntu tarballs from the ubuntu-touch/x/ubuntu channels (x being either devel-proposed or rc-proposed, depending on what you need).
