Oops, I don't often send for non OE-Core and I forgot there was a separate 
mailing list for that. I usually just cut and paste from here:

http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Sending_patches

Which makes it easy to overlook the mailing list requirement.

There are several examples in the repo that use this same pattern. Here's one:

https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded/commit/7163946b56539725d5a5868a9318e56e713a4a95

It has the advantage of not installing the header in the image. Should the -dev 
solution be preferred?

Subject: Re: [OE-core] [meta-oe][PATCH] nlohmann-json: Allow empty main package 
for SDK

Wrong ML and why do you want to install empty package? Add nlohmann-json-dev to 
imx-gpu-sdk recipe instead.

The header-only package cannot be included in the SDK without marking
the main package with ALLOW_EMPTY.

Fixes rootfs problem:
```
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 imx-gpu-sdk : Depends: nlohmann-json but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
```
