oelint.var.filesoverride

severity: warning

Example

In my-recipe_1.0.bb

FILES:${PN} = " foo"

Why is this bad?

Override of FILES can lead to files accidentally installed into a different than the desired package. Do not override the default of Yocto/OE.

Ways to fix it

Append instead

FILES:${PN} += " foo"
