+# Common variable and task for the binary package recipe.
+# Basic principle:
+# * The files have been unpacked to ${S} by base.bbclass
+# * Skip do_configure and do_compile
+# * Use do_install to install the files to ${D}
+#
+# Note:
+# The "subdir" parameter in the SRC_URI is useful when the input package
+# is rpm, ipk, deb and so on, for example:
+#
+# SRC_URI = "http://foo.com/foo-1.0-r1.i586.rpm;subdir=foo-1.0"
+#
+# Then the files would be unpacked to ${WORKDIR}/foo-1.0, otherwise
+# they would be in ${WORKDIR}.
+#
+
+# Skip the unwanted steps
+do_configure[noexec] = "1"
+do_compile[noexec] = "1"
+
+# Install the files to ${D}
+bin_package_do_install () {
+    # Do it carefully
+    [ -d "${S}" ] || exit 1
+    if [ -z "$(ls -A ${S})" ]; then
+        bbfatal bin_package has nothing to install. Be sure the SRC_URI unpacks into S.
