Here's what I have:

   [gary at thor synology_poky]$ file tmp/work/ppce500v2-amltd-linux-gnuspe/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/amanda/libamar.so
   tmp/work/ppce500v2-amltd-linux-gnuspe/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/amanda/libamar.so: symbolic link to `libamar-3.3.3.so'
   [gary at thor synology_poky]$ file tmp/work/ppce500v2-amltd-linux-gnuspe/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/amanda/libamar-3.3.3.so
   tmp/work/ppce500v2-amltd-linux-gnuspe/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/amanda/libamar-3.3.3.so: ELF 32-bit MSB shared object, PowerPC or cisco 4500, version 1 
(SYSV), dynamically linked, BuildID[sha1]=0xef5c0cd4d0ac1abfb9a29b05ca6189d5a1b745ae, stripped

Following your advice, I added these lines to my recipe:

   FILES_${PN} += "/usr/lib \
                   /usr/local \
   "
   INSANE_SKIP_${PN} += "dev-so"

Now I get errors like these (they might have been there before):
   ERROR: QA Issue: non debug package contains .debug directory: amanda path 
/work/ppce500v2-amltd-linux-gnuspe/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/local/share/perl5/auto/Amanda/Xfer/.debug/libXfer.so
   ERROR: QA Issue: non debug package contains .debug directory: amanda path 
/work/ppce500v2-amltd-linux-gnuspe/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/amanda/amanda/.debug/chunker

My recipe (still a work in progress) is attached in case I've done something
really stupid...

I'll get them all collected and report back.

Thanks
