Hi Andrea,
You are right, the recipe works-as-is, when adding 'cppzmq-dev' to the image
rather than just 'cppzmq' - I was not aware of this. From an eSDK perspective
it seems to work when the package is installed according to
devtool sdk-install -s cppzmq
and then adding 'IMAGE_INSTALL += "cppzmq-dev"' to local.conf.
On the variables passed in from the shell, can you refer to the location of
this whitelist - for future reference?
Thanks for your support - highly appreciated.
Martin

If you go down the patch-the-recipe way, you can probably leave
PACKAGES at its default: both ${PN} and ${PN}-dev are there by
default.

Better would be adding:
ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN} = "1"
This way it's cleaner and should work as well. However, you'll need to
force your image to depend upon an empty package to be added
(meaningless for the target), for the sake of the corresponding -dev
package to be part of the tailored eSDK... Maybe there's a better way
to achieve this, possibly by adding cppzmq-dev to the SDK explicitly
with something like TOOLCHAIN_TARGET_TASK_append (never used it in
practice though). Hopefully someone can further comment on this to add
some wisdom.

Yes it is. -dev packages are not intended to be installed into target
image by design.
