I am creating sdk->fakeroot from this yocto build to build my in house
embedded powerpc application.  And the embedded powerpc application build
is looking for this file in this specific path.  I could make a symbolic.
However, before I do that I just want to poke around to see if there is an
alternative within yocto setting to make this happen instead of making a
symbolic link.  It sounds like I might have to do that...

One other question I have for you...  Is there a way to create
kernel-debuginfo and kernel-debuginfo-common from yocto build?
