> FYI we do have meta/conf/distro/include/distro_alias.inc which sets
DISTRO_PN_ALIAS for each recipe, which is intended to help map to the names
used in other distros. Will that work?

Yes, I think this is exactly what I was hoping to find! Great that you
already have smth line this in place :)
 Just one question: how is this value supposed to be fetched in a class? I
could not find any usage example through the code. Is it set for each
package automatically or do I need to enable smth?

Best Regards,
Elena.
