<div>This page should list common (!) mistakes when defining a recipe. a link or one sentence explaining what the problem is are a bonus. But keep it short!<br />
<br />
= (R)DEPENDS, etc. =<br />
<br />
libiconv in (R)DEPENDS<br />
: Use "virtual/libiconv" instead as glibc based systems already have libiconv functionality from glibc. Uclibc based systems will get it from "libiconv". By building libiconv in glibc build You risk a corrupted TMPDIR which will need to be restarted from scratch.<br />
<br />
kernel modules in RDEPENDS<br />
: Never use RDEPENDS to drag kernel modules into an image, use RRECOMMENDS instead. The reason is that some devices can have those modules built-in into kernel.<br />
