I'm not sure what the best way to fix this is though. Can anyone give me a little guidance or point me at a recipe that does this correctly already?

I don't see why this is a problem, personally. If someone wants a
recipe's main package to depend on the other packages it emits,
they're free to make the recipe do so. But the ${PN} package is not
defined to include everything from the recipe, it never has been.
