Recipes can create the same file, but they can’t be installed at the same time. If two recipes install the same filename and they’re both pulled into the sysroot via DEPENDS then that is a fatal error and you can’t avoid it. If two packages install the same filename and they’re both pulled into an image then that is a fatal error and you can’t avoid it. Ross
