Ok, I will change to ${B}

I confirm do_deploy is executed before do_install.
It looks like it is schedule this way by the last line of the file:

addtask deploy before do_build after do_compile

(I attached the log.task_order for reference - FYI, behavior is the same on
jethro or today's master branch)

Interesting.
After reviewing this more carefully, I agree with you and also think 
that a dedicated task is
finally not really needed for these actions. The point which matters is 
the task order
and the schedule required to add the public key to the DTB.
And regarding this task order it should be possible to place it in a 
"do_install_prepend".

I will sent a new version integrating comments from Otavio's and you.

Thanks
