Thanks, Robert Yang. Method using abc.bb: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Before I tried using abc.bb, but I faced an error that says unknown package abc and something like opkg_install_cmd: cannot install ..... Hence I thought of trying linux-kernel_3.4.bbappend. But now I added like the following to the abc.bb file (before I didn't give the -dbg line) FILES_${PN} += "${base_libdir}" FILES_${PN}-dbg += "${base_libdir}/.debug" FILES_SOLIBSDEV = "" Now it's working :) --------> This is fine for me and as you said, this is the recommended way too. Method using linux-kernel_3.4.bb just for analysis : ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I tried to add FILES_kernel-vmlinux like the following do_install_append () { install -d ${D}${base_libdir} install -m 0644 ${WORKDIR}/abc.so ${D}${base_libdir} } FILES_kernel-vmlinux += "${base_libdir}" FILES_kernel-vmlinux-dbg += "${base_libdir}/.debug" I am getting the following error ERROR: QA Issue: non debug package contains .debug directory: kernel-vmlinux path /work/<machine>-poky-linux-gnueabi/linux-yocto/3.4+<version>/packages-split/kernel-vmlinux/lib/.debug/abc.so Regards, Sathish -----Original Message----- From: Robert Yang [mailto:liezhi.y...@windriver.com] Sent: Friday, July 04, 2014 6:07 AM To: Sathish Kumar Balasubramaniam -ERS, HCL Tech; yocto@yoctoproject.org Subject: Re: [yocto] Adding a shared object file to rootfs Hello, I think that there are two problems: 1) You can use a abc.bb to add the abc.so rather than .bbappend, then you can add something like: IMAGE_INSTALL_append = "abc" to conf/local.conf. 2) Please see my comments inline.

Again, this is highly suggested not, The suggested way is abc.bb. // Robert > > FILES_SOLIBSDEV = "" > > However still I am getting the following error > > ERROR: QA Issue: linux-yocto: Files/directories were installed but not shipped > > /lib/abc.so > > /lib/.debug > > /lib/.debug/abc.so > > ERROR: QA run found fatal errors.
