It works but needs documenting. Clutter is a good example of a recipe which does this. 16629 1 srifenbark 2011-10-03 12:37:03 +0000 I will look at the recipe. 16947 2 srifenbark 2011-10-20 14:10:54 +0000 I will research the Clutter recipe to get some understanding. I'll also tap into whoever i can in the team to supplement my information. At first glance, I think maybe the existing 3.7 section in the YP Reference Manual ("Combining multiple Versions of Library Files into One Image") might be re-cast at a higher level to be something to do with libraries in general. Then, that higher-level section can be split into a "multilib" section and a section to handle this bug. I would like to be able to actually duplicate the stuff that the Clutter recipe is doing but maybe with versions of a different library that makes sense. 31038 3 srifenbark 2013-03-22 17:58:36 +0000 I have created a new section in the dev-manual titled "Installing Multiple Versions of the Same Library" (http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.4/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#installing-multiple-versions-of-the-same-library). This section describes the process, which Paul Eggleton helped me create. As part of the fix, I also collected the now 3 separate sections that deal with library issues and gathered them in a parent section for better organization. The parent section is "Working With Libraries" at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.4/dev-manual/dev-manual.html#platdev-working-with-libraries. Send feedback if there are problems or changes.

Marking the bug RESOLVED. Scott 31867 6 andreea.b.proca 2013-04-11 07:09:00 +0000 Verified.
