On further digging (log.do_package_write_rpm) I found that libharu,
libharu-doc and libharu-locale rpms were not created

        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu-dbg
        NOTE: Not creating empty RPM package for libharu
        NOTE: Not creating empty RPM package for libharu-doc
        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu-dev
        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu-staticdev
        NOTE: Not creating empty RPM package for libharu-locale
        
To fix this I added ALLOW_EMPTY = "1" in the recipe which ended up
creating empty rpms

        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu-dbg
        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu
        NOTE: Creating EMPTY RPM Package for libharu
        NOTE: Creating EMPTY RPM Package for libharu-doc
        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu-dev
        NOTE: Creating RPM package for libharu-staticdev
        NOTE: Creating EMPTY RPM Package for libharu-locale
        
This suppressed the dependency error and was able to generate final
rootfs image but the libharu libraries were not available in that image.
So, how do I end up creating non-empty libharu rpm. (I guess that will
solve the issue)

Please guide me.

Regards
Joshua
