What do you mean here by 'in native mode'? I'd expect that you mean:
   $ bitbake somepackage-native
Right?

A few explanations related to your question are here:

You don't add -native package to the target system; they are for the
build (host) system to help build object files for the target machine.

You can either edit the conf/local.conf file then build a standard image
or define your own image. For the former:

Additional details are in the YP Mega Manual:

Good luck and welcome to the Yocto Project,

Any help would be appreciated.
