Subject: package.bbclass: Add warning about FILES containing '//'
Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 11:59:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1338375541.20169.119.camel@ted> (raw)

'//' in a FILES variable causes hard to track down issues with
packaging. This adds a warning and attempts to auto-correct the issue to
try and make the problem more user friendly.

[YOCTO #2448]
