ref-manual: Updated the MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS variable
MACHINE_ESSENTIAL_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS won't always grab your out-of-tree module recipe since the kernel recipe's PACKAGES_DYNAMIC variable provides kernel-module-*. This patch documents that your out-of-tree module needs to explicitly set its PACKAGES variable to avoid this behavior. (From yocto-docs rev: 2c51eae23b634cdace5a119ee1a6c8e8ba76dc45) Signed-off-by: Scott Rifenbark <srifenbark@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

7514 In this example, the

7516 needs to explicitly set its

7520 <link linkend='var-PACKAGES_DYNAMIC'><filename>PACKAGES_DYNAMIC</filename></link>
