Put that into a class in your layer, ex. latest-link.bbclass (untested):

do_latest_link() {
	if [ -n "${WORKDIR}" ]; then
		linkname="$(dirname ${WORKDIR})/latest"
		rm -f $linkname
		ln -s ${WORKDIR} $linkname
	fi
}
addtask latest_link after do_unpack


If you want that applied to all the recipes then add INHERIT += "latest-link" in your
local.conf. The other way is just to 'inherit latest-link' in individual recipes.
