Many packages in OE use libusb-compat; some others use libusb. I can't say why this conflict hasn't come up before -- perhaps its a build order thing that has just popped up on my system -- but attempting to link openocd or dfu-util (which DEPEND on libusb) against the libusb.a in staging will fail, if it was libusb-compat that was staged overtop of libusb. I think step one would be to put a "CONFLICTS" line in each of libusb and libusb-compat's bb files -- but I suspect that will break a lot of builds. So I'll send an email out for comments and suggestions on how to handle this little problem. It would be good if people can check their tmpdirs to see if both libusb and libusb-compat are being built (libusb1 is fine - not the similarity in name). How big a problem is this?
