I checked: the complete contents of /usr/lib/evince/3/backends go to

adding all this to ${PN}?
bitbake.conf defines where most files should go, but when you get files in
sub-directories, such as /usr/lib/evince/..., then the recipe needs to do a
little more work. If you look at the evince_2.32.0.bb, there already is a
FILES_${PN}-staticdev that adds some extensions, you need to add this set of
backends to that list, probably same with the .la to the -dev package.
Why I asked this: Maybe there is a chance to fix this more globally
instead of one by one in each recipe. But therefore I need to know
where the path is packed.
I looked around for this a bit: As Saul pointed out, in bitbake.conf we have
FILES_${PN} = ... ${libdir}/${BPN}/* ...
This
* drags in all below this directory ( e.g *.la / *.a )
* Forces me to rewrite FILES_${PN} in evince ( e.g just adding
${libdir}/${BPN}/*/backends/*.a to FILES_${PN}-staticdev fixes nothing
). This is something I would like to avoid.
Suggestions?
I guess others but evince are also affected.
Actually the ordering of PACKAGES matters here and since bitbake.conf
lists the ${PN}-dev and ${PN}-staticdev package before ${PN}, you can
append the ${libdir}/${BPN}/3/backends/*.a to FILES_${PN}-staticdev and
it will pull those first before doing the FILES_${PN}. does that make
sense? You don't have to re-write FILES_${PN}.
Sau!
