+                    prevent more than one recipe from working. You can fix
+                    this by either setting <filename>PN</filename> to have
+                    a value similar to what OpenEmbedded and BitBake use

+                    (see previous example). Or, by manually updating each
+                    recipe to set <filename>PN</filename>. You will also
+                    need to include <filename>PN</filename> as part of the
+                    <filename>STAMP</filename>, <filename>T</filename>, and
+                    <filename>B</filename> variable definitions in the

                 The <filename>TMPDIR</filename> variable establishes a directory
                 that BitBake uses for build output and intermediate files (other
                 than the cached information used by the
