just trying to clarify the gory details of the ALLOW_EMPTY setting.
first, across several .bb files, there is a mixture of these two:

ALLOW_EMPTY = "1"
ALLOW_EMPTY_${PN} = "1"

  what's the difference?  what does the first one represent if you're
not specific?  does that cover *all* generated packages?

  next, i assume there's no real value to hardcoding the package name,
as in:

./meta/recipes-multimedia/alsa/alsa-utils_1.0.25.bb:ALLOW_EMPTY_alsa-utils = "1"

(i assume the above could have just used the standard "_${PN}",
right?)

  i think that might be everything for now.
