== Managing RDEPENDS into a recipe with Yocto Project / Openembedded ==

If you need to add a shared library into a final image you have to use the RDEPENDS keyword into the recipe.
Although the official Yocto Project / Openembedded documentation state that you have to use a simple RDEPENDS keyword specifying the name of the package providing quch library, in some cases you need to specify the '-lib' version of the package providing the library.

For example using 'ncurses' you could expect to use this syntax

RDEPENDS_${PN} = "ncurses"

but actually you need to specify this

RDEPENDS_${PN} = "ncurses-libncurses"
