[oe] libcap_1.10: ERROR: QA Issue with libcap: non -dev package contains symlink .so

[Paul Menzel]

Dear OE folks,


doing `bitbake -k libcap` with latest master (3d030f) with
`minimal-uclibc` for `MACHINE = "beagleboard"`

        NOTE: package libcap-1.10-r2: task do_qa_staging: Succeeded
        ERROR: QA Issue with libcap: non -dev package contains symlink .so: libcap path '/work/armv7a-oe-linux-uclibceabi/libcap-1.10-r2/packages-split/libcap/usr/lib/libcap.so'
        ERROR: QA Issue with libcap: non -dev package contains symlink .so: libcap path '/work/armv7a-oe-linux-uclibceabi/libcap-1.10-r2/packages-split/libcap/usr/lib/libcap.so'
        NOTE: package libcap-1.10-r2: task do_package: Succeeded

Is that error reasonable or are library packages not allowed to have
symlinks [1]?

        FILES_${PN} = "${libdir}"
        FILES_${PN}-dev = "${includedir}"


Thanks,

Paul
