oelint.vars.pnbpnusage

severity: error

Example

In my-recipe_1.0.bb

SRC_URI = "file://${PN}.patch"

BBCLASSEXTEND = "native"

Why is this bad?

If compile for native (my-recipe-native) the value of ${PN} changes to my-recipe-native, making the build access a different file

Ways to fix it

Always use ${BPN} instead

SRC_URI = "file://${BPN}.patch"
