A reference to the original layer location is required in the configure generated version of the image recipe. Without the reference the example in this defect will yeild the following error: ERROR: Function failed: Fetcher failure for URL: 'file://EXAMPLE_IMAGE_FETCH.txt'. Unable to fetch URL from any source.
Copy any SRC_URI referenced files in the original recipe from the layer into the layers/local/recipe-img/images directory.
