Hello, I suggest adding the following Note/Caution to the RDEPENDS glossary entry, right after "thus, the RDEPENDS variable has the ${PN}-dev package name as part of the variable." I've seen a few people run into this. Note/Caution RDEPENDS_${PN}-dev includes ${PN} by default (this default is set in meta/conf/bitbake.conf). Be careful not to accidentally remove ${PN} when modifying RDEPENDS_${PN}-dev. Use e.g. += instead of = to be safe.
