[yocto] package error for custom devtool recipe

[Greg Wilson-Lindberg]

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the corrections. I was working from examples from the book "Embedded Linux Systems with the Yocto Project" by Rudolf J. Streif and he left out the ${PN} in the file name. Including that makes sense now that I see your suggestions. It's now working correctly.


Thanks again,

Greg

The reason none of these work is that none of these actually match the file
path (not to mention you are setting the value outright instead of adding to
the existing value). The path you are trying to match is
"/usr/lib/pcsc/drivers/ifd-acsccid.bundle/Contents/Linux/libacsccid.so" so the
value you want is either exactly that path, or something like
"${libdir}/pcsc/drivers/*/Contents/Linux/*.so".  Also, instead of = use += so
that you are adding to the existing value.

This isn't right - in PACKAGES (via PACKAGE_BEFORE_PN) you are placing "info"
and then setting FILES_${PN}-info i.e. the package is named "${PN}-info".
Probably the thing you want is to prepend this package to PACKAGES:

PACKAGES =+ "${PN}-info"

Cheers,
Paul
