Hi Stefan,

So close :)  Some more points:

This should be the name of the license itself, not the filename.  Looks a
bit like MIT to me.

This URI is relative to ${S} so you can just do file://COPYING;md5=....

Use PREFIX=${prefix} to respect the what the distro has configured.
Annoyingly you can't override the other paths such a libdir easily, so this
will break in multilib configurations or if I recall correctly, on aarch64.

The commandline outputs:

The upstream Makefile is using "cp -a" which preserves ownership, so as you
built the package the files are owned by you.  Luckily you can override
this by passing "INSTALL='cp -r' to the make install (they use cp to
recursively copy directories, so you need to pass -r instead).

I've a recipe locally with these changes and it builds without warnings and
is packaged correctly.

This is what happens when maintainers think autotools is too complicated
and a bare makefile is just fine: they do it wrong. :)
