OK, the project is building now, but for some reasons the generated
executable is ending up in the wrong package (I renamed executable and
recipes in order to try to fix this):

build at 812ee6d53ca8:~/shared/rpi/rpi2-build$ dpkg -c tmp/deploy/ipk/cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4/lissajousexplorer_git-r0_cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4.ipk 
drwxrwxrwx root/root         0 2019-11-08 10:04 ./
build at 812ee6d53ca8:~/shared/rpi/rpi2-build$ dpkg -c tmp/deploy/ipk/cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4/lissajousexplorer-tools_git-r0_cortexa7t2hf-neon-vfpv4.ipk 
drwxrwxrwx root/root         0 2019-11-08 10:04 ./
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2019-11-08 10:03 ./usr/
drwxr-xr-x root/root         0 2019-11-08 10:03 ./usr/bin/
-rwxr-xr-x root/root     38392 2019-11-08 10:03 ./usr/bin/lissajousexplorer

The executable is ending up in the "lissajousexplorer-tools" package,
instead of the "lissajousexplorer" package, why is that?

Best regards,
Berthold
