[PATCH 3/5] lib/oe/package.py: is_elf: Don't let filename influence filetype

[Olof Johansson <olof.johansson@axis.com>]

The is_elf function is simply looking for the substring ELF in the
output from file. But file, by default, prefixes the outut with the
filename. If the filename containts the substring ELF anywhere, is_elf
would identify it as a ELF.

The --brief (or -b) flag of GNU's file utility makes file not prepend
filename to the output.
