[yocto] Packaging foo required!

[Chris Tapp]

I've got a recipe that builds the turbosight kernel drivers. This currently builds loads of stuff, most of which I don't want to install in the final image.

I would like to use MACHINE_EXTRA_RDEPENDS in my local.conf to pull in the modules that I actually need, but that doesn't trigger building of 'turbosight' as the recipe only RPROVIDES 'turbosight'.

I can get round this by manually adding RPROVIDES_${PN} = "kernel-module-x" entries to the recipe for each module, but there are lots and that would be rather painful if I did it for all the modules!

Is there some magic I can use to automatically generate a list of RPROVIDES for all of the packages that are produced, or should this already be happening?
