It's being set in the recipe with ??= which is the weakest form of assignment, so this behaviour is expected. I just tested this in local.conf and it works: PACKAGECONFIG_append_pn-mesa = " something" BTW, outside of a recipe (or bbappend) you should always use a pn- override with PACKAGECONFIG or you'll be affecting more than just the recipe you intend to.
