[yocto] Remove major version number from package name

[Isak Lichtenstein]

Hi all,

I'm relatively new to yocto and open embedded.

I created a few library packages like libdsp for our DSP libraries.

Now when I list all installable packages for libdsp, I noticed that the main package gets the major version number added to its name: libdsp0

# opkg list | grep libdsp
libdsp-dbg - 0.1-r26 - libdsp version 0.1-r26 - Debugging files  Board support library for the
libdsp-dev - 0.1-r26 - libdsp version 0.1-r26 - Development files  Board support library for the
libdsp-staticdev - 0.1-r26 - libdsp version 0.1-r26 - Development files (Static Libraries)  Board
libdsp-test - 0.1-r26 - libdsp version 0.1-r26  Board support library for the
libdsp0 - 0.1-r26 - libdsp version 0.1-r26  Board support library for the

What can I add to my recipe to suppress the automatic addition of the major version number to the package name?

Kind regards
Isak Lichtenstein
