[yocto] rdepends = "python3-modules" in recipe does not install python3-modules in image

[Matt Schepers]

For this recipe the base package is called users.rpm and I can see it in the RPM. Using 'bitbake users -e | grep PN' I was able to find that PN is also set to users, which seems correct.

However the recipe does not install python3-modules even though it's specified in RDEPENDS. I can get it to work by forcing python3-modules in the IMAGE_INSTALL variable, but this is not how I expect yocto to work based on the documentation.

If the recipe is named users, then PN is most likely users as well.

-doc and -dbg are supplementary packages. What is the main package
called? You can look for it in the rpm directory for example.
