<para>
Specifies libraries installed within a recipe that
should be ignored by the OpenEmbedded build system's
shared library resolver.
This variable is typically used when software being
built by a recipe has its own private versions of a
library normally provided by another recipe.
In this case, you would not want the package containing
the private libraries to be set as a dependency on other
unrelated packages that should instead depend on the
package providing the standard version of the library.
</para>
<para>
Libraries specified in this variable should be specified
by their file name.
For example, from the Firefox recipe in meta-browser:
<literallayout class='monospaced'>
PRIVATE_LIBS = "libmozjs.so \
libxpcom.so \
libnspr4.so \
libxul.so \
libmozalloc.so \
libplc4.so \
libplds4.so"
