You don't need to inherit debian in a recipe, that is meant to be a
distro-level inherit (and is inherited out of the box).
Deleting the .so breaks non-static linking as that is the file which is
used to link against, so don't delete it. It should be in the -dev package.
The QA error is probably because your library is built wrong in the
makefile. Another indication of this is the lack of renaming. Look at the
makefile, specifically the specified soname.
