Subject: still confused about valid wildcarding for bbappend files
Date: Sun, 4 Apr 2021 15:51:10 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e66c2878-5f82-394b-e6a-ccd45dc44c73@crashcourse.ca> (raw)

from current bitbake manual:

https://docs.yoctoproject.org/bitbake/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-intro.html?highlight=wildcard#append-files

"The use of the ” % ” character is limited in that it only works
directly in front of the .bbappend portion of the append file’s name.
You cannot use the wildcard character in any other location of the
name."

  that *appears* to suggest that you can have one (and exactly one)
"%" before the ".bbappend" suffix. so how does that explanation cover
examples in some of the OE layers like:

  meta-security/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-%_5.%.bbappend
  meta-anaconda/recipes-gnome/gtk+/gtk+3_%.%.%.bbappend
