OE user manual: Packaging: Defining packages and their contents: Wildcards

Dear OE folks,


reading the OE user manual I wonder about the section »Wildcards«
regarding packages [1].

There are some statements as the following.

        PACKAGES += "FILES-${PN}-test"

Is that correct or should it be fixed?


Thanks,

Paul

That bit should read:

PACKAGES += "${PN}-test"
FILES_${PN}-test = "${bindir}/test"

One needs to have an entry in PACKAGES first before you can assign files
to it. Reversing the statements will work, but it OE we like define
underlying things first.
