Ok, thanks - mainly wanted to make sure I was following a best practice of 
sorts.

I have some scripts I'd like to copy to the target to a simple folder, e.g. 
/lib/foo

Ideally I'd like to just create a simple recipe something like this:


SRC_URI = "file://lib/foo/foo.sh<file:///lib/foo/foo.sh>"

inherit install_only


Is there a class like this?


It seems like most recipes of this form accomplish this by a custom do_install 
step, such as this:


do_install() {

   install -D -m 755 ${S}/lib/foo/foo.sh ${D}/lib/foo

}


and I was just hoping there might be a base class for examining the input files 
and generating the install steps?



there isn't one. Its not as common a case to abstract out into a class 
additionally when you have such recipes then
the install paths aren't standard either so adding do_install to recipe and 
doing it there is OK




Thanks,

Brad
