${PN}-dev by default depends on ${PN} but in this case ${PN} is empty by design (FILES_${PN} = "") and is not created, leading to installation dependency errors like the following: Collected errors: * Solver encountered 1 problem(s): * Problem 1/1: * - nothing provides cogl-1.0 = 1.22.2-r0 needed by cogl-1.0-dev-1.22.2-r0.armv7at2hf-neon-imx * * Solution 1: * - do not ask to install a package providing cogl-1.0-dev
I think what you need is
ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN} = "1"

Why is creating and depending on an empty package better than not creating and depending on it at all?

From what I can see in other recipes both methods are used.
