Suman,

If you do need these development packages on the target rootfs, then you do 
need to add them to packagegroup-arago-tisdk-addons.bb

But if you need them to be part of the devkit (cross-compile development 
environment on the host), then you need to add to the corresponding 
packagegroup-arago-tisdk-addons-sdk-target.bb

In other words, do you expect someone to compile natively on the target 
against your library and headers? Then it's the first one. But, enabling 
native development environment on the target should not be decided lightly. 
As a matter of fact, for 7.0 we removed this from the default rootfs, 
expecting users to be able to add it optionally from package feeds. Though 
public package feeds were not ready and got postponed...

So, my point is - what are you trying to achieve here? Why do you need -dev 
package on the target filesystem? If you are trying to enable other developers 
to build apps against your library, could they just write a recipe? Is it 
really necessary for the default rootfs? Anyway, hopefully these questions 
could guide you towards the proper solution. Please let me know if you still 
have questions :)
