There are several reasons for this change:

First, according to the recipe style guide, HOMEPAGE is a required variable=
 and should be contained in all recipes:

https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/recipe-style-guide.html=
#required-variables

Second, the recipe linter oelint-adv also wants HOMEPAGE to be set.

Third, the HOMEPAGE is included in the SBOM if it is set. It would be great=
, if every component would contain the HOMEPAGE to be consistent.

I checked what other recipes are doing when they just provide local files. =
The recipes mini-x-session or python3-dtschema-wrapper also set HOMEPAGE to=
 "https://yoctoproject.org", so I thought that would be the accepted way to=
 have a HOMEPAGE for recipes that only provide local files.

Best regards
Pascal
