[oe-users] A Few Newbie Questions

[Jeff Rush]

I'm learning OE and are wrestling with the following issues.  I've searched
the OE and BB docs but not found the answers.

1) I have a very simple .bb file and I do -not- inherit from a .bbclass.
   What rules are applied by default in this case?  In particular, it
   is building -dbg and -dev .ipk files and I don't see how my receipe
   is doing that.

2) For my simple package "taulayout", I create a single directory in the
   do_install() step.  It builds fine but only creates:

      taulayout-dbg_1.0-r0_armv4t.ipk
      taulayout-dev_1.0-r0_armv4t.ipk

   Why didn't it create the basic:

      taulayout_1.0-r0_armv4t.ipk

3) I'm getting confused re the search order of BBFILES and BBPATH.  It
   seems that in some cases it matches left-to-right and other times
   right-to-left.  And seems to differ re .conf files versus
   .bb/.bbclass files.  This isn't documented on the site under those
   directives so can someone spell out the search rules.

   I was expecting it to behave like the Unix PATH and Python
   PYTHONPATH, in that the first match left-to-right is returned.

Thanks for any enlightenment,

-Jeff
