This is tested in the Yocto 1.5 poky-dora-10.0.0, which uses the dora branch of oe-core.
But I don't know which version it is actually in oe-core. And I think all branches in
oe-core need this fix.

Should ${B} be replaced by ${S}? Although sometimes they're not the same:)

And I am puzzled why ${B} should be wiped out, and does it be replaced by any other variable
except ${S}?

Cheers,
