Here's an example recipe to demonstrate the issue. Save it as "deployme.bb"
into a recipe dir. Then build it for two machines. Building it for one machine
will remove it from the deployment directory of the other. This problem has
been bugging me for months, I had files just "disappear" mysteriously from the
deploy directory and seemingly random times, and now I finally figured out
what causes it.

SUMMARY = "Demonstrate a bug in OE deployment"
DESCRIPTION = "Build this package for a machine X, then look at the image's \
deploy directory. You'll see a deployme.txt there. Now build it for another \
machine, e.g. "Y". The deployme.txt for machine X will have disappeared \
from the image dir. This appears to be a bug in OE's deployment."
LICENSE = "GPLv2"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM =

do_compile () {

}

install -m 644 ${B}/deployme.txt ${DEPLOYDIR}/
}
