The special key kernel-module- is necessary for the system to avoid a package rename when installing a multilib image. For example:
local.conf: IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " hello-mod" bitbake lib32-core-image-minimal The system will translate names and prepend 'lib32-', unless the package begins with kernel-module-.
