I'd like the end result to match how it's done on other systems, e.g. my desktop Fedora box. However, this layout is causing some QA errors which I don't know how to fix, e.g. ERROR: QA Issue: non debug package contains .debug directory: amanda path /work/armv7a-vfp-neon-amltd-linux-gnueabi/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/auto/Amanda/MainLoop/.debug/libMainLoop.so ERROR: QA Issue: non -dev/-dbg/-nativesdk package contains symlink .so: amanda path '/work/armv7a-vfp-neon-amltd-linux-gnueabi/amanda/3.3.3-r0/packages-split/amanda/usr/lib/amanda/libamar.so' I understand the first one but don't know the workaround. How do I tell bitbake that the directory /usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/auto/Amanda/MainLoop contains executable code (and that's OK)? The second issue I think is one of philosophy. The symbolic link is important to the package - how can I set this up to be OK? Thanks for any pointers Note: of course there are many of each of these classes of errors, this is just a representative example. -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gary Thomas | Consulting for the MLB Associates | Embedded world ------------------------------------------------------------
