           Summary: SMPEG stages with broken link, cannot link against
                    library
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: Angstrom
          Platform: ARM
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: openembedded-devel at lists.openembedded.org
        ReportedBy: pmiscml at gmail.com
         QAContact: tinderbox-oe at gmx.net


smpeg_0.4.4+0.4.5cvs20040311.bb creates dangling link 'libsmpeg.so' pointing to
non-existent 'libsmpeg-0.4.so', whereas actualy there's 'libsmpeg-0.4.so.0'. As
a result, linking against libsmpeg fails.

This happens due to undersmartness of oe_libinstall when dealing with libs with
custom suffixes ('libsmpeg-0.4' instead of 'libsmpeg' in this case). It fails
to recognize such library as libtoolized, even so it actually is.

So, either oe_libinstall should be made more smart, or simple one-line patch in
attachment should be added.

The issue described here can be reproduced by building 'rocksndiamonds',
recently added.
