251Image artifact name variables now centralised in image-artifact-names class
252---------------------------------------------------------------------------
253
254The defaults for the following image artifact name variables have been moved
255from bitbake.conf to a new ``image-artifact-names`` class:
256
257- :term:`IMAGE_BASENAME`
258- :term:`IMAGE_LINK_NAME`
259- :term:`IMAGE_NAME`
260- :term:`IMAGE_NAME_SUFFIX`
261- :term:`IMAGE_VERSION_SUFFIX`
262
263Image-related classes now inherit this class, and typically these variables
264are only referenced within image recipes so those will be unaffected by this
265change. However if you have references to these variables in either a recipe
266that is not an image or a class that is enabled globally, then those will
267now need to be changed to ``inherit image-artifact-names``.
