even though its a bad idea to package binaries but sometimes you have
no choice. You can
write a recipe where do_configure and do_compile do nothing and in
do_install you would install
the binaries into ${D}${bindir} and ${D}${libdir} as appropriate and
then create PACKAGES and use FILE_<package> to bean the files into
respective output packages.
