oelint.file.underscores

severity: error

Example

my_recipe_1.0.bb

or

my-recipe.bb

Why is this bad?

Bitbake's version detection takes the last chunk after a _ of the filename as the default version. If not present 1.0 is assumed, so any updates to the recipe might not result in a rebuild of the recipe.

Ways to fix it

rename to

my-recipe_1.0.bb
