Indeed. Installing *-config files which don't get installed by the recipe is prone to cause subtle errors. I modified pkgconfig.bbclass in a similar way in commit c2c8fe4c5629add94bd0b922f5b3446624a9f4d8. "find recipes -name "*-config" -type f" shows candidates which may cause breakage with this patch applied, in case they need to be installed but only get copied to the source directory. > Searching in the installed root seems to be more logical. > > Most packages don't need to be ported to this change, as they install > config file with the same name as it exists in sources. But probably > several will need porting. Why is this function needed at all? Isn't it possible to do the mangling before or after do_install like in pkgconfig.bbclass?
