[yocto] Question: xxxx listed in PACKAGES multiple times, this leads to packaging errors

[Dinh Nguyen (dinhn)]

Thanks much Paul.

>>>> PACKAGES = "${PN}" should work

It solved the early error “ c-mlib listed in PACKAGES multiple times, this leads to packaging errors” — Thanks again.


But running into other issue. Below is my do_install

do_install () {
	oe_runmake all
	install -d ${D}${libdir}
	install -d ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/libmlib.so ${D}${libdir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/datamodel_cache ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/invoke ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/invoke_b ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/protocol_infra ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/publisher ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/rpc-register ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/service ${D}${bindir}
	install -m 0644 ${S}/target/subscriber ${D}${bindir}
}

PACKAGES = "${PN}"
FILES_${PN} = "/usr/bin/datamodel_cache \
		/usr/bin/invoke \
		/usr/bin/invoke_b \
		/usr/lib/libmlib.so \
		/usr/bin/protocol_infra \
		/usr/bin/publisher \
		/usr/bin/rpc-register \
		/usr/bin/service \
		/usr/bin/subscriber"



And under ${S}/target, it has the libmlib.so and other binaries built,
And I intended to copy the .so to ${D}${libdir} and binarires to ${D}${bindir}. I am able to build the c-mlib package as shown below:

dinhn at rs-bldsrv:/media/raghuram/data/dinhn/ioxDevLatest/ioxsdk/yp$ find tmp/deploy | grep c-mlib
tmp/deploy/ipk/core2-64/c-mlib_1.1-r0_core2-64.ipk


The problem is that, after "bitbake c-mlib”, it moved all sources under ${S} to /usr/src/debug etc.. 
I googled but unable to find the root cause. Would you and other can help to identify the issue?

Please let me know whether I should start the new email thread instead? Thanks
